Australia just rolled out their social media ban for anyone under 16. Enforcement officially started this week.
Now here's the question everyone's asking: Should the US follow suit?
Some argue it protects kids from online harm. Others say it's government overreach into parenting decisions. Where do you stand on age-gated internet access becoming the norm?

Australia's recent move is quite aggressive... But speaking of which, should kids under 16 really be using phones? I think parents should take some responsibility.

Hey... Australia's move is really bold, banning social media for under 16s? Feels like they're just helping parents take a break.

Hey, Australia is really playing with fire this time. After the ban, kids will only go over the wall more crazily.

NOH, Australia is a bit amazing, banning under 16 years old but can you really control it, VPN is broken casually
