Greece will ban all kids under 15 from using social media
Greece will ban children under 15 from using social media starting next year, with Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis citing concerns about anxiety and addictive design. Social media companies will be legally required to verify user ages, facing fines under the EU’s Digital Services Act if they fail to comply. This initiative aims to push the European Union towards similar regulations.
