Reddit launches high court challenge to Australia's under-16s social media ban
Original: Australia’s social media ban ‘ill-thought-out’, Reddit argues in high court challenge https://www. theguardian.com/austr
Reddit is arguing in Australia's High Court that the country's under-16s social media ban is 'ill-thought-out' and unlawful. The platform contends the ban impinges the implied freedom of political communication, a constitutional protection in Australian law. The case tests whether the world-first law, which blocks under-16s from major social platforms, can stand against constitutional scrutiny.
Why now: The ban is a world-first law with global implications, and the constitutional challenge puts its legality in doubt.
