- EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced plans to impose age-based restrictions on young users accessing social media without parental supervision.
- A key recommendation from an expert panel is that minors under 13 should only have "time-limited" access to social media, under parental supervision.
- The measure aims to prevent social media from accessing children, emphasizing that the issue is about protecting children from potential online harms rather than simply restricting their access.
