UK Announces Social Media Ban for Under-16 Users:
United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced the landmark proposal to ban social media access for users who are under the age of 16. This move aims to protect the children from online harms, cyberbullying, addictive platform features and the potential mental health risks. If it gets approval from Parliament this legislation is expected to be enacted by the end of the year 2026 and it comes into force in early 2027.
