Require social media to enforce more advanced moderation — 6 signatures. Status: rejected.
Require social media to enforce advanced moderation to protect users from experiencing online harassment or coming across unwanted content, making social media safer for everyone. Laws like banning social media for young people do not protect everyone.
Banning social media for under 16s just creates an artificial barrier that doesn't prevent young people from accessing social media platforms, as they can find ways around restrictions. Additionally, online harassment and exposure to unwanted content affect users of all ages, not just young people; more effective solutions are needed for all users on social media.
