The EU is considering a bloc-wide minimum age for social media 📱

Von der Leyen backs a “digital majority” age for child safety 👶
But legal experts say only national governments can set age limits ⚖️
GDPR & DSA offer some tools, but no legal path for a full ban 🚫

Critics warn it could infringe on children’s rights 🧒
