French President Emmanuel Macron announced on January 24, 2026, that he is speeding up legislation to ban social media use for children under 15, aiming to pass the law by September 2026 and enforce it at the start of the next school year.
In a video address, he cited concerns over children's brain development and the influence of foreign tech platforms and algorithms.
The proposal follows similar moves in Australia and reflects growing global scrutiny of social media’s impact on youth mental health.
