Real age checks, real safeguards & real consequences - these are what parents need from online platforms in order to protect children. Thank you for your leadership on the EU’s Blueprint for online child safety @ReginaDo 💪🏽
I’m not just a politician. I’m a parent first and foremost, and I am tired of watching the online world chip away at children’s wellbeing. Europe is finally taking action, and I am glad our blueprint for online child safety passed this week. @EPPGroup @FineGael
