希腊议会通过15岁以下社交媒体禁令：2027年元旦生效，平台须在两个半月内拿出年龄验证办法
雅典——据路透社10月23日报道，希腊议会当天通过一项法案，禁止15岁以下儿童使用社交媒体平台，禁令将于2027年1月1日生效。法案通过的背景，是外界对社交媒体影响未成年人身心健康与安全的担忧日益加剧。希腊总理米佐塔基斯说，社交媒体平台有2个半月的时间来设计验证用户年龄并保护其隐私的办法；希腊政府站在家长一边，帮助遏制“无尽刷屏”
剥夺儿童睡眠、专注力与朋友相处时间的现象。
希腊是欧洲国家中对未成年人社交媒体采取立法行动的最新一例。澳大利亚去年率先通过立法，限制未成年人使用社交媒体；法国也曾通过类似法律，但今年8月被法国宪法委员会推翻。希腊还是与欧盟委员会一道寻求年龄验证方案的7个欧盟国家之一。希腊此前已于2024年禁止校园使用手机，据Engadget报道，民调显示新的社交媒体禁令获得希腊成年民众的广泛支持。对违规平台的罚则将依据欧盟《数字服务法》执行，年龄验证的技术方案仍有待平台与监管部门在生效前敲定。

Greece Passes Social Media Ban for Children Under 15, Effective January 1, 2027
ATHENS — Greece's parliament approved a bill on Friday banning the use of social media platforms by children under 15, Reuters reported on October 23. The ban comes into force on January 1, 2027, amid growing concerns over social media's impact on minors' health and safety. Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said platforms have two and a half months to devise a way to verify users' ages and protect their privacy; the government says it is standing by parents to help curb the "endless scrolling" that deprives children of sleep, concentration and time with their friends.
Greece is the latest European country to legislate on minors' social media use. Australia was the first country to pass legislation curbing social media use by minors, doing so last year; a similar law passed in France was struck down by the country's Constitutional Council in August. Greece is among seven European Union countries seeking an age-verification solution with the European Commission. Greece previously barred mobile phones in schools in 2024, and opinion polls show the new ban is widely supported by the country's adult population, according to Engadget. Penalties for non-compliant platforms will be enforced under the EU Digital Services Act, and the technical design of age verification remains to be settled by platforms and regulators before the ban takes effect.
