• Effective age checks. The riskiest services must use highly effective age assurance to identify which users are children. This means they can protect them from harmful material, while preserving adults’ rights to access legal content. That may involve preventing children from accessing the entire site or app, or only some parts or kinds of content. If services have minimum age requirements but are not using strong age checks, they must assume younger children are on their service and ensure they have an age-appropriate experience.

That’s what it’s really about.

Personally I think parents should just monitor their children’s online activity. It feels silly to try and regulate the internet as a whole. That ship has clearly sailed though.

Safety is an illusion
