Greece to ban social media use for under-15s from next year

What happened: Greece plans to prohibit children under 15 from using social media platforms starting next year, following similar actions in France and Spain.

Why it matters:

  • Aims to protect young users from potential online harms and privacy risks.
  • Impacts children, parents, social media companies, and regulators in Greece.

MNN Take: This move reflects growing concerns across Europe about children's safety online and the need for stricter age controls on social media platforms.
