    Meta, TikTok, and Snapchat say they will comply with Australia’s ban on social media for minors.

    The social media giants have agreed to boot users under 16 from their platforms by the December 10th deadline, but are still voicing skepticism about the policy’s enforcement and effectiveness.

    Correction: YouTube has also said it disagrees with the law, but has not said it will comply.

    Reuters: Their comments represented a shift in the social media industry’s response to the law, which is being watched by lawmakers around the world as concern grows about youth mental health. Under the Australian law, platforms must take “reasonable steps” to block users aged less than 16 or face a fine of up to A$49.5 million ($32.5 million).

    Australian regulators are suing over last year’s Microsoft 365 price hike.

    When Microsoft bundled Copilot into personal and family plans for Microsoft 365 last year, it raised prices for annual subscriptions by up to 45 percent. However, the Australian regulator ACCC alleges it misled consumers by not advertising a less expensive option without Copilot until consumers tried to cancel, reports The Guardian.

    “Following a detailed investigation, we will allege in Court that Microsoft deliberately omitted reference to the Classic plans in its communications and concealed their existence until after subscribers initiated the cancellation process to increase the number of consumers on more expensive Copilot-integrated plans,” ACCC Chair Gina Cass-Gottlieb said.
