Greg Barnes is right. Like the farcical tobacco taxes and vape bans, the under 16 ban on social media is gross overreach and doomed to fail. Failure will likely result in doubling down with criminal sanctions because the hubris of our politicians makes them unwilling to admit they might be wrong.
Australia has become the first country to ban social media for under-16s, but the move raises serious free speech issues and risks creating a digital black market with harmful consequences, writes Greg Barns.
