Five European Union (EU) countries including France will test an app aimed at preventing children from accessing harmful content online by checking users' ages, the European Commission said Monday.
Several European nations have ramped up the pressure on the bloc to better protect minors online through more stringent measures, with some going as far as to advocate banning social media for under-15s.
On Monday, the commission unveiled the prototype of an age-verification app that Denmark, France, Greece, Italy and Spain will customise to launch national versions within several months. “It will allow users to easily prove they are over 18 years old, protecting children from inappropriate content,” EU tech chief Henna Virkkunen told reporters.
