Australian influencer family move to UK to avoid social media ban

The Empire Family, a popular Australian social media family, is relocating to the UK due to Australia's new social media ban for under-sixteens, which starts in December. The ban, a world-first, aims to protect younger kids from harmful effects but raises privacy concerns and potential inaccuracies in age verification methods. The family, consisting of mums Beck and Bec Lea, their teenage son Prezley, and daughter Charlotte, is known for their YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram content. Charlotte, who goes by Charli online, has a significant following. The family supports the ban's intention but believes their content, managed by adults, is positive and creative. They plan to continue their online work from London while Australia sorts out the new rule. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
