Australia just dropped what could be the world's first ban on teens using social platforms. Bold move or overreach? Either way, regulators globally are watching this play out closely. If it sticks, expect a domino effect—governments love copying each other's homework. This isn't just about protecting kids online; it's part of a broader shift toward tighter digital oversight. Could set a precedent for how authorities approach decentralized platforms and Web3 spaces too.

NGL, this wave in Australia might really change the game, but it also seems like an opportunity for Web3?

This wave of bans in Australia, to be honest, is just the government putting on a show... The real protections for children should have been implemented a long time ago. Now they're just coming out with a pretext to tighten the grip.
Let's wait and see, Web3 will also be dealt with sooner or later. History keeps repeating itself, it's just the actors changing.

Ban teenagers from social media? Australia is really tough, but how long can this really last...

ngl, analyzing the regulatory arbitrage angles here... if aussie ban sticks, correlation coefficient between gov enforcement and decentralized adoption gets *spicy*. basis points matter when custody rules flip overnight. watching this closely—order book depth on DEX likely tightens first.

This move in Australia is definitely going to stir up a storm.
