The European Commission has launched a review into how platforms like Snapchat, YouTube, the Apple App Store, and Google Play protect minors online.
The investigation is connected to the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA), which requires tech companies to prevent the spread of harmful or illegal content. Officials are asking the companies to explain how their age-verification systems work and how they block minors from accessing banned products such as vapes, drugs, or content promoting eating disorders.
According to Reuters, Google said it already provides “age-appropriate experiences” and continues to work closely with the EU on improving child protection.
EU Regulations Regarding Gambling Platforms
The Commission has also asked Apple and Google to explain how they prevent users from downloading gambling platforms or so-called “nudify” tools that can create non-consensual sexual images. It also wants to know how both companies apply and use age ratings and restrictions on the apps.
In short, gambling content and advertising are now considered risky and must follow the same protective standards as other adult industries. Operators and affiliates promoting betting or casino services must ensure their marketing does not target minors and that their age-verification tools fully comply with EU regulations.
The investigation marks another step in Europe’s strict approach to online safety and transparency, as regulators push prominent tech firms to better protect young users from illegal and potentially harmful content.
