Google Criticizes Australia's Ban on Under-16s' YouTube Accounts
Google has strongly criticized the Australian government's decision to ban individuals under 16 from holding social media accounts, including YouTube.
The decision came after a federal government backflip, which added YouTube to the ban, despite initial expectations that it would be exempt.
The ban is set to begin on December 10, following the introduction of the legislation by the Albanese government in November 2024.
