Twitch Added to Australia’s Teen Social Media Ban
Twitch has been included in Australia’s upcoming ban on social media for users under 16, effective December 10, alongside platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. The ban, aimed at reducing risks for children online, requires companies to prevent under-16s from accessing their platforms or face substantial fines. Twitch, owned by Amazon, focuses on social interaction through livestreaming content. Enforcement methods may include age verification through IDs or online behavior analysis.
