My latest take on online child protection in Europe, in collaboration with my brilliant fellows from the #Pulse network:
The continent is torn between banning certain content, implementing age verification and addressing privacy risks, while also holding platforms accountable. Amid rising harm and political pressure, experts insist that digital literacy and shared responsibility must prevail.
