Teen Noah Jones is trying to get Australia's under-16 social media ban overturned in court. His argument? The ban didn’t keep him off social media at 15. Instagram’s age check correctly flagged that he was too young, but he simply created another account. Snapchat’s facial age scan, meanwhile, determined he was old enough to stay on the platform. Noah, who turned 16 in August, argues that instead of banning young people, governments should target harmful content and hold social media companies accountable.
