Turkey bans social media for children under 15

Turkey will ban the use of social media by children under 15. The new law, approved by parliament, comes into effect on November 1. Platforms will be required to verify the age of users and take technical measures to block access by children under the age limit. Verification will be done through a state-issued identification code.

New rules are also foreseen for minors over 15 years old. Platforms will not be allowed to offer services that are considered to be addictive. With this decision, Turkey joins countries that are tightening restrictions on social networks for children. Similar measures have been adopted or are being discussed in Australia, Indonesia and several European countries.

In September, the European Union also introduced a proposal to restrict access to social media and video platforms for children under 15. Austria, Denmark, France, Greece and Spain are working on similar laws, while the United Kingdom is also expected to take action next year.

Andi Bushati: An autumn with an end-of-regime atmosphere

Whether it's his own party's own dice that throw him a punch, whether it's citizens who boo him in the street, whether it's the brave SPAK prosecutors who have gotten close to his throat, or international journalists who compare him to the godfather, one thing shows that Edi Rama's political curve has reached its end. His propaganda narrative is already over.

Blendi Kajsiu: Prime Minister's misunderstanding on anti-corruption

The fact that no institution of our public administration noticed that millions of euros were invested in phantom incinerators, that AKSHI was controlled by an ordinary criminal, that the directors of the Municipality of Tirana awarded tenders to themselves, or that the police director and the director of SHISH worked for Gysi, shows that we do not have a public administration and a state.
