YouTube has expressed opposition to being included in the upcoming social media age ban proposed by eSafety Commissioner Julie Inman Grant, arguing that her recommendations overlook the views of parents and educators. Inman Grant's plans, which are set to be implemented by mid-December, suggest that platforms will be responsible for age verification, an aspect that has raised concerns among various social media companies regarding the lack of guidance on their obligations. YouTube reiterates its belief that the government's draft rules should remain unchanged.
YouTube has criticized calls for it to be included in the under-16s social media ban, claiming that the eSafety Commissioner's advice ignores families' and educators' concerns.
Inman Grant’s proposal indicates that age verification will occur on individual platforms instead of at the device or app store level, raising questions about implementation timelines.
