"Australia made global headlines in November, when its parliament passed a law to ban under-16s from social media. But much of how it will work... remains unclear."
"The legislation will empower the communications minister to determine which platforms will be restricted, but it is widely expected it will at least apply to Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok."
"A trial of the technology is under way, but it is believed the final version could include... facial age estimation, account behavioural checking to determine ages, and, potentially, the use of existing authentication services."
"The prime minister, Anthony Albanese, has said the ban is about making sure children have a childhood. The aim, he added, was to get them playing outside with their friends."
