Big tech opposes YouTube exemption from Australia's ban on social media for children - Channel News Asia

Quick Summary:

SYDNEY : Tech giants Facebook and Instagram owner Meta Platforms, Snapchat and TikTok have urged Australia to reconsider a decision to exempt Alphabet's YouTube from its laws banning social media for children younger than 16.

Snapchat said no specific company should receive preferential treatment.

"There must be a fair and impartial application of exclusions and all services should be held to the same standard," Snap Inc said in a submission on Friday.
