Communications Minister pressed on calls for age limits to be mandated on social media

Communications Minister Michelle Rowland has been pressed on the Coalition’s calls for age limits to be mandated on social media platforms. The Coalition has called for age limits to be mandated on social media sites so that children cannot access them. The plan would be done through the use of age verification technology. “These are some of the issues that are being examined right now as part of the Online Safety Act review,” Ms Rowland told Sky News Australia. “No one wants vulnerable people, especially children, seeing certain content and certainly not content that is age-inappropriate.”
