8.1
On Jan. 20, 2026, Britain said it is considering measures to better protect children online, including an Australian-style ban on social media for those below a certain age and tougher school mobile-phone rules. Ministers will visit Australia to study its under-16 ban; proposals also include stronger age checks, limits on addictive features like infinite scrolling, and curbs on AI-generated nudity.
