India, July 22 -- The French parliament has passed a law banning children under the age of 15 from using social media, making it the first European country to impose such an age limit.
Both Houses of the French parliament - the Senate and the National Assembly - passed the bill banning social media access for children under 15 on Tuesday.
The roll-out begins in two stages: From September 1, under-15s will be blocked from opening new accounts. Social media platforms have until January 1, 2027, to identify and close or restrict existing under-15 accounts.
