EU KIDS Act Criticised Over Age Verification Badge Plans
Original: The EU KIDS Act Should Make Services Safer, Not Create an Internet Badge
The Internet Society has publicly criticised the EU's proposed KIDS Act, arguing the legislation should focus on making online services genuinely safer for children rather than introducing an internet-wide badge system. The group warns that a badge-based approach risks becoming a symbolic measure instead of delivering real protections, and is urging EU lawmakers to rethink how the rules are designed and enforced.
Why now: The EU is currently debating child safety legislation, and civil society groups are pushing back on parts of the proposal.
