Ireland is testing out a digital wallet that conducts age verification for social media users
Ireland is currently testing a Government Digital Wallet that will enable secure age verification for social media users. This initiative, part of a broader European Union regulation, aims to protect children and young people online by ensuring designated platforms have robust age verification measures. The pilot phase is opt-in, and feedback is being collected to refine the user experience before its public release later this year.
