A few months back Australia became the first nation to implement a ban on social media for teens below 16 years and now the UK is about to follow this footsteps and implement a similar ban in the nation but what is the actual idea and motive behind this and how is it going to be implemented know about it in this blog

How is it going to be implemented:

This won’t be implemented like a nationwide digital shutdown but instead the government is planning to run a ‘Pilot’ survey in 300 teenagers home across the UK who will be divided

into three groups where 

The first group will be tested a little strictly where the most popular social media application will be completely banned from usage .

The next two groups will be used to know more about the limited interaction by decreasing the usage to almost 60 minute interaction of social media apps

Why has this initiative been taken

This step was not taken mindlessly but to ensure the safety of children, it ascertain protecting the children from consumption of harmful content, bullying and addiction of social media platforms

How Is This Curfew Different

Unlike a total ban on social media this step aims to specifically restrict the overnight access to improve sleep and mental health of teenagers using social media

What Will Happen Next:

With this step there are chances that social platforms will implement a mandatory ‘wind-down’ mode for users below 16 years of age, the age verification will become more strict and there can also be a potential ban on the habit of doom scrolling
