Australia's under-16s social media ban faces High Court legal challenges
Australia's social media ban for under-16s is being legally challenged in the High Court on grounds of constitutional rights and free speech.
Australia's ban on social media use by under-16s, which took effect in December, is facing its first major legal test in the High Court. The Digital Freedom Project and Reddit have jointly challenged the policy, arguing it breaches constitutional rights. Reddit contends the ban restricts teenagers' freedom of political communication and is ineffective, whilst the Digital Freedom Project says it violates the right to free communication.
