“The Australian government has announced that YouTube will be included in new legislation that bans children under the age of 16 from using social media. The Labor government announced Wednesday that YouTube, will be age-limited just like social media platforms will be starting in December, when new legislation goes into effect that bans children under 16 from using them. … The ban puts the main pressure on the platforms themselves to keep underage kids offline, or risk fines as high as $32 million.” (07/30/25)
