Australia’s world-first social media ban for under-16s starts tomorrow, but two determined teenagers are taking their objection all the way to the High Court.
Backed by the Digital Freedom Project, Noah Jones and Macy Neyland argue the ban is partly unconstitutional, restricting young people's ability to discuss public life.
We speak with Noah and Macy about their legal fight, their alternatives to the ban, and what they believe is lost when teens are forced offline.
