The eSafety commissioner has said it will take a “principles-based approach” to the government’s plan to ban social media ban for children under 16, saying platforms will not be required to verify the ages of all users.
X Corp claims it is not answerable to a compliance notice the eSafety Commissioner issued to Twitter concerning its monitoring of child sexual abuse on its platform, telling the court there’s a “lively dispute” about the effect of the company’s acquisition by Elon Musk.
The online safety watchdog has dropped her Federal Court action seeking to force X to put a worldwide block on graphic footage of the April stabbing of a religious leader at Wakeley, following a judge’s decision not to maintain an injunction against the social media platform.
The Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal has ruled that social media giant X must face a human rights complaint brought by a Muslim advocacy group over allegedly dehumanising material on the site.
