UK Considers Banning Social Media for Under-16s

The United Kingdom is reportedly considering a ban on social media platforms for individuals under the age of 16. This potential move mirrors similar legislative efforts seen in Australia, which has implemented restrictions on social media access for minors. The proposed UK legislation aims to address concerns surrounding the impact of social media on young people's mental health and well-being. Further details on the scope and enforcement of the ban are expected as the government deliberates on the proposal.
