New Zealand aims to restrict social media for under 16s
New Zealand plans to introduce a bill to ban under-16s from using social media platforms such as TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook, starting in early 2027. The legislation would require platforms to verify users' age via methods like digital identity checks and facial age estimation, with fines up to 10% of global revenue for non-compliance. The bill aims to protect children from harmful content and the negative effects of social media, though some political parties oppose it, and its passage is uncertain.
