Australians react to social media ban for under 16s

Australians give their thoughts on new legislation to ban under 16s from social media after the bill passed through parliament with bipartisan support.

However, there remains uncertainty over how the law will be implemented and enforced.

"I think it's good that the government's on this ban," 19-year-old Arthur McCormack tells AFP, "but in terms of enforcement, I'm not sure how it will be carried out."
