Greece will block teenagers’ access to social networks from 2027

According to Mitsotakis, the corresponding law will be passed through parliament in the middle of this year and will come into force in 2027.

According to the Greek Prime Minister, this measure is aimed at combating the rise in anxiety and sleep disorders among young people, as well as what he called the “addictive design” of social networks.

Let us recall that in December 2025, Australia became the first country in the world to oblige TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat and other leading platforms to delete the accounts of users under 16 years of age under the threat of large fines.

France, Austria, Spain, the UK, Ireland and Denmark are pushing similar restrictions.
