Age assurance technologies are gaining attention globally due to Australia's new law banning social media use for those under 16, expected to start in November 2025.
The Australian legislation, still vague in its key details, mandates social media platforms to take reasonable steps to verify users' ages and prevent minors' access.
The upcoming trial of age-assurance technologies in Australia will inform regulations and could influence similar bans in other countries, placing pressure on social media platforms.
Companies like Yoti plan to participate in the Australian trial, testing their age estimation technology, Digital ID app, and processes to ensure user identity verification.
