Teenagers under the age of 16 could be banned from Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram and email if they don't have parental permission, under last-minute changes to EU laws.
The European Union is on the verge of pushing through new regulations that would raise the age of consent for websites to use personal data from 13 to 16.
What exactly is the purpose to this? How do you block them on Snapchat? What's stopping them from putting in age 17 or 18 and having their parents allow it anyway?

Color me doubtful of this tbh.
Yeah, age restrictions on the internet is just unrealistic, unfortunately.
