Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis emphasised the importance of parental involvement and proposed setting the "digital adulthood" age at 15.

In an effort to protect minors from digital addiction, Greece is set to introduce age-based restrictions on social media. This initiative, inspired by models in Australia and France, aims to enforce mandatory age checks and parental consent for users under 15. As Greece seeks EU-wide collaboration, the regulations strive to create a safer online environment for young users.
