Australia passes law, bans social networks for children under 16

Australia's parliament has passed legislation banning social media for children under the age of 16, putting tech companies on notice to beef up security ahead of a yet-to-be-determined deadline.

The Senate passed the social media ban late Thursday, the last day of the year's session, after months of intense public debate and a rushed parliamentary process that saw the bill introduced, debated and passed within a week.

Under the new law, tech companies must take "reasonable steps" to prevent underage users from accessing social media services or face fines of nearly A$50 million ($32 million)./ CNA
