Australia to sue Meta and TikTok over youth social media ban
Australian Communications Minister Anneika Wills announced that the government intends to pursue legal action against Facebook, TikTok, and other digital platforms for failing to comply with the ban on social media use by individuals under 16 years old. This comes after an investigation by the Electronic Safety Authority revealed the existence of active accounts belonging to children on these platforms, due to a lack of proper age verification measures. The minister confirmed that the government now has broader powers to gather evidence and build its case, with legal action expected against the companies involved. The maximum penalty for violations can reach up to 76 million dollars. These measures are part of Australia's efforts to protect minors from harmful content and represent the first of its kind globally, while other countries are observing its implementation.
