Kids nowadays spend all their time on mobile phones. Even though that phrase can be heard pretty often from boomers, it is nothing serious. However, it may become pretty serious for Australian kids out there. According to the Australian prime minister, new laws might stop anyone under 16 from using social media. And yes, this will most likely include online gaming.

Block On All Social Media Online Gaming On Everyone Under 16

Anthony Albanese, the prime minister of Australia and leader of the Labor administration, wants to amend social media regulations to safeguard minors. However, the updated Internet Safety Act will prohibit anyone under 16 from using social media sites.

YouTube and Twitch might possibly be included in the ban. Furthermore, the PlayStation Network, Xbox Live, and Nintendo Switch Online, may all be directly impacted by this prohibition.

According to Albanese, businesses that violate Australian legislation may be subject to “maximum fines are less than a million dollars,” and they should “take reasonable steps to block people under 16.”

It must be made clear that firms, not the child or parents, would be subject to fines if a child continues to use social media after the new rule goes into effect.
