Platforms that violate these rules face fines of up to 50 million dollars. Prior to these regulations, almost all teenagers and many young children had ignored such age restrictions. The international community, specifically France and the US, is already looking at Australia's experience as a model for introducing their own restrictions, reported by 24.kz.
