The online media world can be challenging for both adults and children, exposing them to inappropriate content, cyberbullying, and various other risks ‼️ The introduction of Instagram "Teen Accounts" and the Prime Minister’s proposed legislation for a social media minimum age reflect an important step toward protecting children online. The South Australian report on social media’s impact on #mentalhealth underscores this need. Meta's "Teen Accounts" include built-in protections, limiting contact and content visibility, and requiring parental consent for changes. Combined, these initiatives provide a holistic approach to creating a safer digital environment for young users 📲 Read more on the recent announcement here ➡️ https://lnkd.in/edBm9stx
