France Bans Social Media for Under-15s | Here’s What It Means | FP Explains | N18G
France has approved a nationwide ban on social media for children under 15, making it the first European country to introduce such a measure. Backed by President Emmanuel Macron, the law requires platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat and X to enforce age verification, with the responsibility placed on tech companies rather than parents. The government says the move aims to protect children's mental health, sleep and attention spans. Critics question whether age verification can prevent determined users from bypassing the rules. As other European countries consider similar restrictions, France's experiment could shape the future of child online safety across the continent.00:00 - France Bans Social Media for Under-15s
