EU KIDS Act Must Make Services Safer, Not Badge the Internet
Original: The EU KIDS Act Should Make Services Safer, Not Create an Internet Badge
The Internet Society is urging EU lawmakers to focus the proposed KIDS Act on making online services genuinely safer for children, rather than introducing an internet-wide labelling or 'badge' system. The group argues such a badge could give a false sense of security without delivering real protections. The intervention lands as the EU debates its latest child-safety rules for digital platforms, with civil society groups pushing for effective design safeguards over symbolic markers.
Why now: The EU is currently debating the KIDS Act, and stakeholders are publicly pushing for changes to how child safety is enforced online.
