Malaysia wants to protect children from social networks

The Malaysian government plans to ban the use of social networks for users under the age of 16 starting in 2026. This was reported by the Reuters news agency.

According to the Minister of Communications, Fahmi Fazil, this decision is explained by the need to protect children from digital threats. The goal is to prevent risks such as sexual violence against children, financial fraud, and intimidation.

According to the New Straits Times, social networks should be ready to implement an electronic identification system by 2026. In the coming months, this process will be discussed with the public and operators.
