We brought together top experts for our new Special Panel on child safety online.
We are looking into real solutions, like harmonised age limits for social media across all EU countries , and making sure tech platforms step up to protect young minds.
We are here to help make the internet a safer playground.
@EUCommission
The loss of privacy this entails will damage society far more than any benefits.
The children you aim to protect will grow up in a normalised surveillance state.
Rethink. -
@EUCommission I would love to see law and restrictions as long as it does not include:
- Age verification
- Communication monitoringWe should just fine platforms that can not keep up their promises
@ivolimmen @EUCommission We should be educating parents tbh.

a child's right to privacy is a pre-requisite of child safety.
you cannot protect children when you take away childrens' right to privacy.
your agenda destroys child privacy which means you are unambiguously against child safety.
you are making a wrong decision and you are making it knowingly. the people will never forget your actions or your names.

you'd be well advised to read and heed the replies from concerned citizens, or become irrelevant.
internet is not a "playground" and there's a difference between "safe" and an unfree society, which will be the outcome of this.
go after big tech instead. they're not partners. they're the ones endangering the children.

@EUCommission
Restrict the harassers, not children's access to online spaces. -

@EUCommission you're just trying to protect kids right? What could go wrong?
Oh! The fact that ALL laws you've tried to pass so far violate the EU charter of fundamental rights , especially the right to privacy.
So is it really protecting children? Or just trying to control people? -

@EUCommission what you should do is punish hate speech and force online platforms to protect their users, not prevent children from community and information they would never get otherwise. You're harming lgbtq+ kids especially and paving the path for online control and surveillance.

Please consult with experts who actually work with children and youth online, and ideally with children and youth themselves. As such, we clearly say: You are on the wrong track.
We are here to help if you are looking for expert interventions regarding the topic!

@csepp @EUCommission Not all parents bother or have the time... sad but true

if you really want to talk about protecting children then make it legal to hunt domestic abusers for sport.
if you want child safety then create a universal basic income that includes money for all children so they will have a financial safety net their entire life.
if you really want to protect children then force USA to expedite Trump and the rest of the Epstein list and hang them to death for their crimes against children.
we all know right from wrong.

@EUCommission Regulating the business model of big tech social media, particularly targeted advertising and algorithmic manipulation, is much more difficult.
Why not remove the incentives for platforms to maximize engagement through outrage or addictive algorithms?
The answer is that it takes courage.

@EUCommission
Right, so your mission is to keep kids from talking to other kids? Or to monitor all their conversations for bullying? What exactly are you going to stop? -

@EUCommission How about you leave parenting to the parents instead of restricting people's privacy? Child safety is a very comfortable excuse for malicious laws.
All chat surveillance and age verification should be dead and buried six feet under. Otherwise we will soon live in a surveillance state. -

@EUCommission Listen to the voices in Australia reporting on how age restrictions and surveillance are failing kids and adults here and don't make the same awful mistakes! Make Big Tech take responsibility for the damage they've wrought.

@EUCommission this is just an excuse to usher in government censorship. It has nothing to do with actually protecting kids.
-

@ivolimmen @EUCommission Yep, that's one of the big problems. Although I'm in favor of *meaningfully* regulating platforms, if a kid is raised by YouTube, they will likely not be okay.

@EUCommission Age limits require age verification, and age verification means bureaucratically identifying everyone online. Everyone.
That's transparently incompatible with the goal and implementation of the GDPR, and will impose massive regulatory burden and risk on internet services, who'll have to handle PII they might never have otherwise had to handle.
And for what? So we'll all be fake USians when signing up for things, to avoid giving Peter Thiel our passports? Lose the GDPR entirely?

@EUCommission You're saying nothing concrete but I can't help but feel like whatever you're planning is dystopian control freakery.

@EUCommission This is one salutary proposal. Kids need to be shielded from all the non-sense social media stuff. Some adults too, but one step at a time.
@drionescu @EUCommission So you are saying we should start surveilling and censoring what kids see on the internet and then do the same for adults you don’t like
