Shopping site ban for people under 16 in England

A government source speaking to the newspaper said, "There is ample evidence to show that many children under the age of 16 are actually becoming vulnerable to risks by accessing these services. We need to take a comprehensive approach to protect children online." he said.

The Children's Society, a UK-based child protection foundation, reported that some users on the sites and applications in question ask for inappropriate photographs of child users in exchange for money.

Former Prime Minister Keir Starmer of the country, in his statement on June 15, stated that studies were initiated to ban the use of social media by people under the age of 16 and that they planned to pass the law in the parliament by the end of this year.

Noting that the ban will be implemented in the first months of next year, Starmer said, "All parents see it with their own eyes. Social media makes children unhappy. It makes it easier for bullies to harm and abuse children, and even children's mental health is damaged. Children are exposed to dangerous content because they attract attention." He used the expressions.

Pointing out that in addition to banning access to social media applications, the messaging feature in game and streaming applications will also be banned, Starmer said that there were plans to include VPN in the scope of the ban.
