Australia plans to set a minimum age limit for children to use social media citing concerns about mental and physical health, sparking a backlash from digital rights advocates who warn the measure could drive dangerous online activity underground.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said his centre-left government would run an age verification trial before introducing age minimum laws for social media this year.
Albanese didn’t specify an age but said it would likely be between 14 and 16.

Right decision
Wise and right decision
First sensible thing he's done. But more importantly, if you have a thick accent, I don't think you should be broadcasting. No one can understand you.
And rabbits, and cats, and emus.
You got a lot of problems there.
I think in the US we should have warning labels and a minimum drinking age for soda and coffee ECT. The children get addicted to the sugar and caffeine and keep drinking it for the rest of their lives, with the possible risk of conditions like diabetes, 😮 😢
