@csepp @EUCommission Not all parents bother or have the time... sad but true
@ivolimmen @EUCommission Yep, that's one of the big problems. Although I'm in favor of *meaningfully* regulating platforms, if a kid is raised by YouTube, they will likely not be okay.

@EUCommission Age limits require age verification, and age verification means bureaucratically identifying everyone online. Everyone.
That's transparently incompatible with the goal and implementation of the GDPR, and will impose massive regulatory burden and risk on internet services, who'll have to handle PII they might never have otherwise had to handle.
And for what? So we'll all be fake USians when signing up for things, to avoid giving Peter Thiel our passports? Lose the GDPR entirely?

@EUCommission You're saying nothing concrete but I can't help but feel like whatever you're planning is dystopian control freakery.

@EUCommission This is one salutary proposal. Kids need to be shielded from all the non-sense social media stuff. Some adults too, but one step at a time.
@drionescu @EUCommission So you are saying we should start surveilling and censoring what kids see on the internet and then do the same for adults you don’t like

@EUCommission Parent here. I decide appropriate age limits for my kids.
Not you.

@troed @EUCommission Same here. Stop playing fucking iron nanny and invading my family's privacy and safety. My child's safety is my responsibility, as well as teachers' and other caregivers' they spent time with, not the state. Stay the hell out!

@EUCommission No, we don't need age restrictions and to give up privacy. You need to apply existing laws and taxation to X, Meta and Tiktok.

@EUCommission "think of the children"

@csepp @EUCommission Not all parents bother or have the time... sad but true
@ivolimmen @csepp @EUCommission then they probably don't have time to look after them properly in other respects either. We have laws around child neglect already

@EUCommission Unlike you, I've read all the responses here, so I have little to add.
But, making "see" the operative verb in your misleading propaganda, using (lazy) uncaptioned images, is specially galling.
Do YOU see us, hear us, perceive us, acknowledge us?
This account gets more insulting each day.

@EUCommission the worse solution ever, you must be focus on other things that real matter, rather creating pretexts for kind of "solutions" across EU regions - there is anyone at EU commission that knows what is IPv4 or IPv6 ? or maybe http/https ? ...delivering layer over layers this is your favourite routine - no good.

@EUCommission
It's up to the parents.Any attempt to regulate what children see on the Internet simply removes all privacy for all adults. Exposes them to exploitation by US Corporations and malicious governments. The verification people will sell the info and it will be kept.
It's not like sometimes younger adults having to show ID in a shop. That's not stored or transmitted and it's a minority of adults.The idea of Child protection on the Internet rather than parental supervision is daft.

The problem is not the children.
The problem is the unregulated, illegal contentEnforce law to protect people against abusive firms, instead of passing laws to survey people.

@EUCommission When people have to go through id/age verification for anything, alternatives to USA big tech "solutions" threatened, IT security weakened by black box backdoors, it means everyone's online safety threaten, business crippled and democracy locked down. The responsibility of the EC in the #chatcontrol disaster is overwhelming.

@EUCommission
Personal Privacy is a key element of online life of free nations.
There is a fundamental problem with claiming to protect children, when undermining the rights of privacy of all individuals.
In Hungary, Orban makes big claims about how his policies are to protect children - then the abuse of children by officials in the ruling party reveal that the policies only had theoretical child safety, the real case was the opposite. -

@EUCommission geez if only there was a way to protect not only children but also everyone else, by actually enforcing a rule that already exists, sure would be convenient hmm ?
moderation. it's platform moderation.

@EUCommission The under-16 social media ban got rejected in the UK. Probably best to follow that, given the NSPCC said a blanket ban would result in people being pushed to even worse unregulated spaces.

Hopefully you set up Age related safe spaces instead of banning children from social media. Cutting children off that are under 16, just isolates them from gaming communities and branching out into hobbies their friends may not partake in.
Let them grow, don't prune them. Let them be a part of their sports clubs events and celebratory photos on socials.
