Comisia Europeană a adoptat legea care restricționează accesul copiilor la rețelele sociale

The European Commission has adopted the EU KIDS Act, which restricts social media access for children under 13 and sets the minimum age for creating accounts at 15. Parents can create 'mini-accounts' for 13-14-year-olds, allowing limited access to age-appropriate content. The act mandates protective measures, including limited screen time and private profiles for minors. It also imposes obligations on online services to ensure user safety, including banning addictive features and requiring age verification tools. Ursula von der Leyen emphasized the need for platforms to demonstrate safety for children, shifting the responsibility onto them.
