The UK Online Safety Act expands next year to ban social media for under 16s, but the government plan to expand it even further to target video game chat too.Liam Squires-Hand (GamingOnLinux)
The UK social media ban is coming.
That means every adult having to show their ID to get online.
Age verification puts privacy at risk. Curbs freedom of expression. And simply doesn't work to keep kids safe online.
The government needs to change course. But the clock is ticking.

Protect people. Regulate powerful platforms. Keep the internet open. The Government is planning to introduce tough new laws that require all adults to show ID to access to go online. They say this is to keep under 16s off social media.Open Rights Group
