新素材·网络禁令(原创)①Australia has passed a law that aims to prevent people younger than 16 from using social media. The law is meant to protect young people, but some people say it could create more problems than it solves. Starting in January, Australia has tested ways to carry out the law.
②Under the new law, social media companies must take “reasonable steps” to prevent anyone under 16 from creating an account. If the companies do not follow the law, they could be fined up to 32 million dollars. The law doesn’t affect all social media. Some media often used in schools are not included.
③ Most people in Australia seem to agree. Recent surveys show that 77% of people in Australia are in favor of the law. People are worried about how social media can hurt young people’s mental health. Many people have heard stories about young people who have been harmed online and later hurt themselves.
④But not everyone agrees that the new law is a good idea. Some people believe the law will make it harder for young people to connect with others who can support them. Others worry that the social media ban will push young people toward less safe parts of the Internet.
⑤Around the world, there are serious concerns(担忧) about the effects of social media on young people. One of the biggest concerns is how the social media companies will figure out how old their users are. The law says the companies must give people a way to prove(证明) their age without sending in a government ID, but it’s not clear how this might work. The demand that the companies collect even more information raises worries about the privacy of young people.
⑥Other countries have also taken steps to limit social media use by young people. In France, people under 15 cannot use social media without permission from a parent. Countries like the UK and Norway are considering similar laws. Some US states have passed laws limiting social media for young people, though these laws have been challenged in court.
