TikTok, Facebook, Snapchat, Reddit, X and Instagram will face
fines of up to 50 million Australian dollars for failure to prevent young
children under 16 from holding accounts.
The government agreed to accept amendments in the Senate about
privacy protections. Platforms would not be allowed to compel users to provide passports
or driver’s licenses, nor demand digital identification through a government
system.
Bi-partisan agreement on this issue was overwhelming so lets hope this law stops the bullies from taking more young Aussie lives.
