'I'll Find A Way': Australian Teens Shocking Reaction To World-First Ban on Social Media for Under16

In a world-first move, Australia has passed a law banning children under the age of 16 from using social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

The law, which was approved by parliament with bipartisan support, aims to protect kids from the harmful effects of online content, including body image issues and cyberbullying.

But the legislation has sparked mixed reactions across the nation, with some applauding the government's commitment to child safety, while others question how it will be enforced and if it infringes on personal freedoms. Is this bold new law the right solution or an overreach?
