In short:

Reddit and Kick will be included in Australia’s social media ban for children under 16.

The communications minister says the list of included platforms is “dynamic” and could change.

What’s next?

The ban will begin from December 10.

    This. If I was designing the social media ban I’d have 3 rules:

    1. To post content of any kind publicly requires age verification (messages are exempt).
    2. To receive algorithmic content recommendations requires age verification.
    3. To install a social media app to your phone requires age verification (desktop apps and PWA’s are exempt).
