New rules could give Australians the power to turn off social media algorithms
- Australia is proposing rules that would let users opt out of algorithm-based feeds and see posts only from accounts they follow.
- The plan, called “My Feed, My Way,” aims to give people more control over what appears on their social media feeds.
- Platforms could face fines of up to A$109.2 million if they fail to follow the proposed rules.
- The government plans to introduce the legislation later this year, but the proposal still needs parliamentary approval.
