Greece Bans Social Media for Under-15s Starting 2027
Greece has enacted a law prohibiting children under 15 from using social media platforms, effective January 1, 2027. The law mandates platforms adopt reliable age-verification systems and requires parents to use government-approved apps to enforce access restrictions, with penalties tied to the EU's Digital Services Act for noncompliance. Prime Minister Mitsotakis pushed the bill through using his parliamentary majority over objections from minority parties.
