The French government has passed a law prohibiting children under the age of 15 from using social media. According to this law, social media platforms must verify all users starting from January. This step is being taken to ensure the online safety of children and teenagers. The law aims to protect children from the negative impacts that they may encounter on social media. The amendments require social media platforms to take strict measures to verify the age of users. This law is significant in the process of increasing regulation of social media in France.
