The European Commission aims to establish common rules for children's access to social media, postponing national bans by 12 months. This decision follows various countries preparing different age restrictions. The proposed "EU Kids Act" seeks to standardize age limits across EU member states, prohibiting accounts for children under 13 and allowing limited access for those aged 13 to 14 under parental supervision. Austria's planned restrictions have been affected, leading to criticism from its government. The Commission emphasizes that differing national regulations could complicate enforcement and aims for a unified approach to protect minors online.
