Australia to double fine for flouting teen social media ban

Australia will double the financial penalty on platforms flouting its world-leading teen social media ban to $68 million to stem widespread evasion of the restrictions, the government said Saturday.

The eSafety regulator is investigating potential non-compliance by Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, TikTok and YouTube, the government said in a statement outlining plans to arm the watchdog with greater powers.
