Australia has become the first country in the world to enforce a nationwide ban on social media access for children under the age of 16. Platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube are now legally required to block under-age users or face heavy fines.
The ban has sparked global debate, with some countries signalling they may follow Australia's lead. Here at home, organisations such as Smartphone Free Childhood South Africa say the move should be a wake up call for local policymakers, while other child rights groups warn that a blanket ban could be difficult to implement and may raise constitutional concerns.
To help us understand what this could mean for South Africa, we're joined by Lerato Ntwampe from Smartphone Free Childhood SA.
