New Zealand moves to ban social media for under-16s
New Zealand's government introduced legislation on Monday to ban under 16s from using social media, joining a number of countries seeking to keep youngsters off sites such as Instagram and TikTok.
@socialmedialab.caMain problems with this kind of legislation the world over is how would it actually be enforced?
The biggest challenge is age verification. To block minors, platforms may need users to submit:
- government ID
facial scans / age estimation
- parental verification
- credit card checks
