LONDON (Reuters) - Britain could look at further measures to protect young teenagers from the risks of social media in the new year following the introduction of new online safety laws focused on children and the removal of illegal content, a minister said.
The Online Safety Act, which became law in October, requires platforms like Meta's Instagram and Alphabet's YouTube to strengthen controls around illegal content and age-checking measures.
