- Qustodio, the digital parenting company, reports that more than 20% of Australian teenagers aged 13–15 still access TikTok and Snapchat despite a nationwide ban two months earlier.
- The ban requires platforms to block under-16 users or face fines up to A$49.5 million.
- Usage declined from pre-ban levels, but ongoing access raises concerns about age-verification effectiveness.
- The Australian government says changing social-media access culture will take time, with YouTube usage declining.
