Following the launch of Australia's ban on social media for under-16s, there's been debate over whether New Zealand should follow this example.
Meta's Global Head of Safety, Antigone Davis, has labelled the full ban a 'fool's errand' and claims parental controls are the way to go.
Former Facebook CEO for Australia and New Zealand Stephen Scheeler says parental controls are a safety feature that should be considered - but it won't solve the wider problem.
"I don't think it's a total solution, but I think it is another tool in the toolkit."
