UK Plans Default Midnight Social Media Curfew for Teenagers
NDTV·Wednesday, 15 July 2026
Britain is set to introduce a default overnight curfew on social media apps for 16- and 17-year-olds. The curfew would be applied automatically, meaning users would have to actively opt out. This makes the UK one of the first countries to impose time-based restrictions on teen social media use.
