Pinterest’s CEO supports Australia’s ban on social media for younger teens, calling for similar actions globally. He argues that social media is unsafe for those under 16 and advocates for enforcing a ban with accountability for mobile phone operating systems and apps. Despite running a platform with over 50% Gen Z users, Pinterest is excluded from this ban due to its existing safety measures for teens. The company has faced child safety issues in the past, prompting changes to protect users under 16. The CEO believes prioritizing safety builds trust and is beneficial for business.
