澳大利亚禁止16岁以下的人使用社交媒体,使用面部年龄检查核实用户。 Australia bans social media for under-16s, using facial age checks to verify users.

澳大利亚已对16岁以下青少年实施社交媒体禁令, 要求平台使用Yoti等面部年龄估测技术, 验证16岁及以上使用者。 Australia has implemented a social media ban for teens under 16, requiring platforms to verify users are 16 or older using facial age estimation technology like Yoti’s. 该系统分析一秒以下的自拍活体,在一年内估计年龄,在不储存面部数据或识别用户的情况下,只发出通行证或失败通知。 The system analyzes a live selfie in under a second, estimates age within one year, and sends only a pass or fail without storing facial data or identifying users. 它跨越性别和皮肤色调运作,检测假图像,并标出不一致的行为,以便重新核查。 It works across genders and skin tones, detects fake images, and flags inconsistent behavior for re-verification. 没有照片身份证的青少年可以对政府记录进行视频检查,随后删除数据。 Teens without photo IDs may use video checks against government records, with data deleted afterward. 然而,如果未成年人使用父母的面孔,而假身份证、平台执行不力和获取机会不平等,特别是对于缺乏适当证件的年轻用户而言,风险依然存在,那么这个系统就有可能被绕过。 However, the system can be bypassed if minors use a parent’s face, and risks remain from fake IDs, weak platform enforcement, and unequal access, particularly for younger users lacking proper documentation.
