Daily Current Affairs / Denmark Proposes Social Media Ban for Children Under 15
Category : International Published on: December 13 2025
Denmark is preparing to restrict social media access for children under 15, following Australia’s similar move, with parliamentary support from governing and opposition parties. The law, expected by mid-2026, may allow parental authorisation from age 13 and will be enforced through a digital age-verification app. Authorities cite cyberbullying, harmful content, and psychological risks as key concerns. The proposal positions Denmark among Europe’s strictest regulators, reflecting a growing global trend to protect minors’ online safety and digital wellbeing.
