But first, a scoop: The European Commission is set to propose restricting children’s access to social media such as Instagram, TikTok and YouTube while introducing safety requirements for online services like video games and AI chatbots, my colleague Luca Bertuzzi reports.
Under the proposal, due to be unveiled Thursday, minors under 15 years old would not be able to create their accounts on social media or video sharing platforms without their parents’ approval, while tech companies would have to make their digital services safe by design, according to a confidential document obtained by Luca.
