The British government announced on the 14th that it will impose a “curfew” on the use of social media by young people aged 16 to 17. This is a new social media restriction measure after the British government announced last month that it would ban people under 16 from using a series of social media apps. The British government said that under the default settings, young people aged 16 to 17 cannot use social media from 0:00 to 6:00; features designed to entice users to browse for a longer period of time, including automatic continuous video playback, will also be turned off by default. The British government said in June that it would follow Australia's example and ban people under 16 from using a series of social media apps.
