Sources have stated that this important development is taking place in view of growing serious public and security concerns regarding the economic and psychological exploitation of children on social media, online harassment, and unethical and inappropriate content spreading under the cover of family vlogging, so that the internet can be made safe. The consultation process is expected to include the participation of senior officials from PTA, the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency, and federal and provincial police.
In this regard, while examining international models, sources said that the government will also closely review the modern social media policies of various countries around the world, including Australia, while the possibility of imposing restrictions or stricter conditions on certain social media platforms that do not comply with regulations will also be considered.
