Most parties in the Danish parliament said they support implementing a 15-year-old minimum age requirement for social media. It is not yet known which social media platforms will be affected.

It’s weird, seeing this praised on Lemmy.
I’m wondering if the Fediverse has a future in Europe as such laws spread.
Social media is doing serious damage to people’s mental health, especially the non-anonymous ones. It’s a good thing that it’s being clamped down on.
There’s a study being commissioned in the UK on why there are record numbers of young people that are NEETS, and why there is a mental health crisis. I’ll bet that social media is found to be a major factor.
Huh. I thought it was weed doing those things.
Really? So not the ongoing economic implosion, the rise of facism, and the destruction of our planet’s entire ecosystem?
Huh. Wierd.
Surely not. Forget about the economy. Just indoctrinate the youth and impose strict censorship. It’s the secret of the success of the Soviet Union. BTW Have they conquered the world by now? I stopped following the news in the 1980s.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone on fedi that not of an age that would have at some point made a Facebook account.
