Discuss the implications of Australia’s decision to enforce a minimum social media age of 16. In what ways does this compare with India’s approach to online safety and data protection for children?

Tips for your answer

  • Start with the core idea—briefly explain Australia’s minimum age law and the rationale behind it (online safety, harmful content, cyberbullying).
  • Compare frameworks clearly—contrast Australia’s age-based ban with India’s parental-consent model under the DPDP Act.
  • Discuss implications—cover child safety, concerns about free speech, implementation challenges, and risks of pushing teens to unsafe platforms.
