Why does France want to extend age verification to social media platforms?

In France, there has been a long discussion about how to better protect young people from the risks and dangers of the Internet. There are growing concerns about the exposure of minors to content that is not appropriate for their age group. It’s not just about pornography, but also hate speech, bullying, extremist content and more.

France has already taken measures to limit minors’ access to pornographic content. In 2019, the “Law on Strengthening the Protection of Minors from Sexual and Pornographic Content on the Internet” came into force. The law requires operators of porn sites accessible in France to restrict access and ensure that users have reached the legal minimum age. However, the law has its limits and can only be applied to websites hosted in France. It is therefore necessary to take further measures to protect young people from the dangers of the Internet.

How should age checks be conducted?

The exact implementation of age verification on social media platforms is not yet known. However, there are several ways in which such a review could be conducted. One option is to require users to upload their identification documents to confirm their age. Another possibility is that the platforms access age data from other sources to verify the age of users.

However, there are concerns about the implementation of this measure. Some people fear that this could lead to a data breach. Others believe this could limit minors’ access to social networks.

Impact on users of social media platforms

The impact for users of social media platforms is still unclear. However, it is expected that this measure will lead to changes. For one thing, it could become more difficult for users to log in to social media platforms. Secondly, user restrictions could change, as certain content will only be accessible to people who have reached the legal minimum age.

However, there are also positive effects. Parents might feel more reassured knowing that their children can only see content on social media platforms that is appropriate for their age group. The measure could also help make social media platforms safer by limiting minors’ access to dangerous content.

Another positive aspect of this measure is the promotion of data protection. By verifying the age of users, platforms can prevent children and young people from unnecessarily disclosing personal information or coming into contact with people who could put them at risk.

The exact implementation and implications for users of social media platforms are still unclear, but it is important that the discussion about the safety of minors online continues and that measures are taken to better protect them.

It is also important that other countries follow France’s example and take similar measures to protect young people from the risks and dangers of the Internet. Everyone has the right to a safe and secure online environment, and it is the responsibility of governments and social media platforms to ensure this. We need to ensure that the younger generation grows up safe and secure and can enjoy the benefits of the Internet without the risks.
