Cum vrea Comisia Europeană să verifice vârsta copiilor online. „Fără rețele sociale sub 13 ani. Fără cont personal sub 15 ani”

The European Commission proposes that children under 13 cannot access social media, while those under 15 can only have supervised accounts. The EU Kids Act aims to establish common rules for children's online access, including age verification methods. Platforms must limit features that encourage excessive use and provide tools for managing online time. The proposal also covers apps, games, and AI companions, ensuring age-appropriate content. Major platforms must demonstrate compliance with these rules, with independent audits to ensure child safety online. The initiative responds to concerns about the negative impact of social media on children's mental health.
