Australia’s enforcement of a landmark law banning children under 16 from social media has intensified debate in the US, where a new Fox News poll shows strong public backing for similar restrictions. The survey of registered voters finds nearly two thirds support an under-16 ban, with identical backing among parents and higher support among Republicans. The poll also reveals broad approval for banning cellphones in K-12 classrooms, highlighting growing concern over children’s online safety and wellbeing.
