Începe bătălia pentru „EU Kids Act”. Cum vrea UE să limiteze accesul copiilor la rețelele sociale

The EU is proposing stricter regulations to protect children online, including age limits for social media access. The initiative aims to address concerns about the impact of platforms like TikTok and Instagram on minors. Children under 13 would be banned from social media, while those aged 13 to 15 would have limited accounts supervised by parents. The proposal faces challenges in negotiations with member states and the European Parliament, particularly regarding age verification methods. Advocates express concerns about potential privacy risks and the balance between child protection and rights. The EU aims to finalize negotiations within 8-12 months, with implementation possibly starting in 2028.
