TechEU Unveils "EU Kids Act": Social Media Banned for Under-13s, Self-Registered Accounts Only Allowed at 15
The European Commission has proposed the EU Kids Act, which would ban social media use for children under 13, require parental supervision for those aged 13 to 14, and only allow self-registered accounts starting at age 15. The proposal also calls for platforms to remove addictive design features like infinite scroll and recommendation algorithms.
