Growing list of countries move to ban social media for children
The European Union's plan to regulate children's access to social media follows the implementation or proposal of similar measures around the world.
This list now stretches to more than 20 countries, including five where restrictions are already in force, according to an AFP tally.
In most, the measures are very recent and target children under the ages of 15 or 16.
An expert committee is due to submit its recommendations to the European Commission today about a potential social media ban for children in the 27-nation EU.
