Governments are increasingly moving from discussing social media regulation to actively implementing it.

The United Kingdom is studying Australia’s controversial restrictions on social media use by minors as officials prepare new measures aimed at reducing online harms and limiting platform addiction among teenagers.

At the same time, regulators worldwide are focusing on AI-generated content, misinformation, online safety and age verification systems.

The coming years may represent the most significant regulatory period in social media history.
