Meta supports Greek proposal for a unified digital majority age on the Internet

Meta - the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp - is adopting Greece's position on establishing a unified digital majority age, in a statement expressing agreement with the related proposals.

The related non-paper on protecting minors from Internet addiction was presented by Digital Governance Minister Dimitris Papastergiou at the  Telecoms Council meeting in Luxembourg on June 6. It was co-signed by France, Spain, Denmark, Cyprus, Slovenia, and Italy, also supported by Croatia, Slovakia, Austria, Belgium, Germany and partly by Sweden and the Netherlands. The proposals call for age verification methods to access digital services and defining digital majority age.

The idea is based on the Greek application Kids Wallet, whose age-verification model in the EU Meta has said it accepts.
