Roskomandzor proposed to limit children's access to content by age Roskomandzor proposed to introduce mandatory identification of children on social networks and reduce the time on the Internet for those under 14, Vedomosti reported, citing the representative of the regulator. Later, the department stated that they did not initiate any ban - it is only about age-appropriate content. The technical mechanism was not revealed; The State Duma has not yet seen the document. According to VTsIOM, almost 60% of Russians support restrictions on children's social networks. The Ministry of the Interior is concerned: teenagers are more and more attracted to crimes through social networks - decreasing and transferring access to accounts. Head of the State Duma Committee for the Protection of the Family Nina Ustenina: "We have no understanding of the essence of the bill; Roskomandzor is not the subject of a legislative initiative. In the meantime, it is unlikely that he will find support in the company. First of all, we will make sure that positive content interests the children, and then we will think about how to get rid of the negativity. Rosmolodz said honestly: from 3% to 30% of the content created finds support from minors. Any coercion from above will result in rejection." In June, the Ministry of Digital Development said it was considering confirming the age of users by studying foreign experience. In Australia, social networks for children under 16 have been banned since last year, and similar measures are being discussed in the UK and the EU. However, restrictions at the state level do not produce results - children find loopholes. Information security expert Alexey Gurlkin: "The example of China: there were technical limitations for many years, but they were overcome. Following the blocking principle is a road to nowhere. We need mass cyber education for parents, then for children. The face of the attack is increasing: if a child does not know how something works, it is easier for the attackers to deceive him under the pretext of bypassing locks." Minors spend an average of 88 minutes a day on social media, while 13-year-olds spend about 100 minutes. Leader in time -. TikTok.
