Whoa! Australia is a relatively small country whose revenue contribution to Meta Platforms, Snap or TikTok is likely minuscule. But investors have to consider the possibility that the land Down Under is the canary in the coal mine of social media regulation. After all, the Australian law is a more aggressive variation on laws passed by many U.S. states over the past couple of years, all aimed at protecting children from the worst of social media. The U.S. state laws vary widely: some states, such as Tennessee, require social media firms to verify that parents consent to their children having an account. Age verification, to ensure social media firms know when a child holds an account, is becoming more common. (Here’s a summary of state laws <https://url3396.theinformation.com/ls/click?upn=u001.71kYkaWDpGOJSzbGrs4y1SCRAHEMfouoBOxvsS0ryZukf1M-2FvqUfio-2FLOOo6IqXJ7L-2B5yJoYn5DnUtOEE1f8x-2Fy4CnPxZ-2F7gcRXIU02EyOhiiTEzEVrw0uMIz2uhUlbyzFr53psAXlh0kfW0u-2BMWvqxgKRHacUACRAsci9SmUU9FecYr7XkbtzTZDHzDBsISVlEAZJz3RHYyVFpYQuwWUBwVE4-2BoKcmz38RSd2KQ3yAVN2jGWMYWibKz8LfxDkcsVBrI_N9MTcf3pe-2BrekFX91pdt3MJb8NVmoCKLRUDjK-2F6XCJHklKPkb-2BZdizcj-2BLsi1o3rXhKHQY7FHTvenbQsMb-2FTd2UrE0tsPS4iAnpt02uw2erPUFUWQzr4RWe2pLsNrz11kgziowLsIaTzyc8b3XpiVoY1-2Fgpn5eonQYJ-2FE-2BEbCdZ-2FNU39LMlRdidnv4iUZpqGu32ev62obrDy4Y4zayGMGBUH3ieF4OZ5AmDEtFp11QZUAP1MBgOji-2BAHEjm1p3y3v7U6cc4xFHUG9cieyUpzVxHliPsIhip8HuUPMGPZw2gPVUXdW1SXCwBlGI7ar4mNS8sZiGbtHBrTjblu6-2BnOaWagPRb-2F-2FTaCB5W1YUUX1lI-3D>, passed and pending.) It’s hard to say whether these efforts have had much of an impact. Then again, tech industry lobby groups have sued to block implementation of many of these laws. Tech companies are also trying to dodge responsibility for verifying who’s a kid and who’s an adult. Meta argues that the responsibility should sit with the mobile app store providers, Apple and Google. Apple says the opposite, as this Wall Street Journal report detailed <https://url3396.theinformation.com/ls/click?upn=u001.71kYkaWDpGOJSzbGrs4y1Z-2BQyMkfR30VvlAohK3Ztezz0VIFuQwXH6Y1zgOiZOpoyS0R-2FcJvYxI24hExSgt79da-2BopjuPbPxVihW9U9FT4LDLrD2g7n1zWikrF-2F6BAlm6tB94MAbdPdJDYbSXvDFwQByyMlGpV5-2BuvN2rld1NWWSZRK1aQEi1dHBK3iFIFIQeJlJM4YjiycNypxzubOsnaRyy0YuFzTFX-2BXLsuS8-2FlPqeNJjZvkDbyTdfyq2n4W7gC8-2FRTa5Dj4E5jEmPbOcaQ-3D-3Dav76_N9MTcf3pe-2BrekFX91pdt3MJb8NVmoCKLRUDjK-2F6XCJHklKPkb-2BZdizcj-2BLsi1o3rXhKHQY7FHTvenbQsMb-2FTd2UrE0tsPS4iAnpt02uw2erPUFUWQzr4RWe2pLsNrz11kgziowLsIaTzyc8b3XpiVoY1-2Fgpn5eonQYJ-2FE-2BEbCdZ-2FNU39LMlRdidnv4iUZpqGu32ev62obrDy4Y4zayGMGBUH3ieF4OZ5AmDEtFp11QaD0doUPT1sBj4RYeXunJmy9YlsxsK9kPCQc65Pdulolctc3uYznn2xnZoTDewIIhzwk8Yj-2F5fixbycfau2StS-2BX6wScE1buh-2B358vWNhEP3bxSDuwNYaEMRO-2FeClub1rA-3D>.

To be sure, how exactly Australia plans to enforce the law is very unclear, particularly as it says social media companies can’t require state IDs as an age verification tool. If politicians are as worried about kids’ safety online as they claim to be, they wouldn’t make it difficult for social media firms to verify ages.

Tech companies have to prepare for the possibility that Australian-style bans could spread to other countries. That would be particularly damaging for Snap, whose Snapchat app skews younger than those of other social media firms. But it wouldn’t be good for TikTok, Meta or even Reddit either. If nothing else, the Australian law adds to a growing assembly of international regulations that threaten to mire tech firms in an ever expanding bureaucratic bog. While engineers are tech’s most valuable source of talent today, one day soon lawyers may take precedence. The Information’s Stories of the Week The most interesting story of the week might have been Wayne Ma and Qianer Liu’s scoop about the details of next year’s Apple iPhones, including the revelation that Apple is grappling with a problem with the widely expected slim iPhone—it’s too thin to fit a physical tray for SIM cards. That could make it impossible to sell in China.
