    Growing up now is growing up online.

    Young people in Europe spend much of their lives in digital spaces where they connect, learn and express themselves.

    But they can also face risks like cyberbullying, disinformation and harmful content.

    @EUCommission
    This is happening offline as well.

    Shall everyone verify with their ID that they can go outside?

    Education and social-site algorithm regulation.

        @EUCommission Bullying is bullying, regardless of where it happens. Same with sexual abuse. Educate kids. Teach them so they can grow up to be resilient adults. Instead of turning the entire EU into a bizarre Orwellian dystopia supposedly tO pRoTeCt tHe cHilDreN.

        Take the money you're spending on this bullshit and start spending it on mental healthcare.

          @presidiet @Karolina @EUCommission Do you condone that kind of behavior?
          We can disagree as much as we want on the subject itself, but one thing we should all agree on is that it's not okay to use aspects that we don't choose like gender or skin color to make someone look bad.
          I will always stand firm by that.
          And if you condone it, then I will not proceed to have a discussion with you. I dislike just "leaving", I apologize, but I just do not wish to get accused that way again, I've had enough.

            @EUCommission y'all are swinging and missing with this one. There are so many questions about this protection I have that anyone who has been a teen with internet could come up with (or, really, anyone who knows what teens get up to) that y'all have not even addressed.

            It honestly reads like an attempt to introduce means of control and not a real attempt at providing safety.

              we are testing our open beta for a recommendation engine and an optimized UX for users. super important to make social spaces more safe. but we also need tor address how to make spaces like Fediverse also interesting for mainstream audiences. Australia shows that excluding under 16 years old from social media is just tackling symptoms. people will always find workarounds. its not a longterm solution, especially not working towards digital sovereignty for people.

                    @EUCommission DSA is a great piece of legislation. Its weakness is that it relies on you to enforce it. Laws that are not enforced don't protect anyone.

                        @iju To make Internet safe for β€œyoung Europeans (aged 16–29)”... let’s force the businesses check the age of everyone who looks under 30?

                        No. This does not sound like a plan. There must be better ideas?

                        I'm not sure what you're saying, but you may have understood me wrong.

                        The internet is damaging due to dark patterns of the social media companies, and their reckless use of their platform for scam advertisements, etc.

                        This is not a problem that can be solved with age verifications, but by enforcing stricter standards on the companies. People have right to safe environment when they're 18, 31, and 80.

                            @EUCommission why don't you try to limit corruption, poverty, and relations with USA and israel? You will save more kids doing that, if you truly care bout them. Of course it's only an excuse to control the population.

                                @iju I’m totally agreeing with you.

                                The absurdity I was trying to point out: plans to force age checks don’t make sense, if the goal is to keep β€œyoung Europeans (aged 16–29)” safe (I’m citing @EUCommission’s picture here). Verifying that a young person is of age does not make them more safe, if they are then still exploited the same way than without the age checks.

                                What age-appropriate special protections would we require specifically for 16–29-year-olds?
