Australia will implement a ban on access to social networks for minors under 16, with measures to be enforced by digital platforms. Companies must demonstrate that they have taken steps to detect and remove minor accounts, without imposing a mandatory age verification system. The Ministry of Communications emphasizes that platforms have had time to prepare. Fines for non-compliance with the rules can reach up to 32.5 million dollars. This legislation joins global efforts to protect children online.
