Most parties in the Danish parliament said they support implementing a 15-year-old minimum age requirement for social media. It is not yet known which social media platforms will be affected.

Apparently you have to either verify your profile using a government developed app, or the SoMe companies can introduce their own verification methods if they want. So yeah, presumably more surveillance with all Danish users having to verify. However it also says the law only targets specific SoMes with a verifiable bad effect on children - so it might not be a blanket ban but only affect the larger ones. No idea how that’s gonna work out though.
Oh, so they’ll be able to pay to get off the baddies list, then. I get it.
Nah, I doubt it. This is Denmark, not the US. But it means that it won’t be like the UK, where all websites just IP ban people from there since the laws are too broad. Still a huge privacy nightmare though.
