Australian Prime Minister Albanese stated on December 1 that he is willing to discuss Australia's ban on social media for minors with the owner of social platform X, Musk. On November 28, the Australian Federal Parliament's Senate passed a bill to prohibit minors under 16 from using most social media platforms. The new law will take effect in 12 months. "Elon Musk, he has his own agenda, as the owner of X, he has the right to advance this agenda," Albanese added on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation program. The bill does not specifically indicate which platforms will be banned. However, Australian Communications Minister Michelle Rowland previously stated that the ban applies to Snapchat, TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and X. Companies that fail to take reasonable measures to prevent minors under 16 from using their platforms will face fines of up to 49.5 million Australian dollars. The world's richest person, Tesla CEO, and owner of X, Elon Musk, has repeatedly opposed this ban in Australia.
