In the German mainstream media, the “social media ban for minors” is currently a hotly debated topic.
According to a survey conducted by the polling firm INSA in December 2025, two-thirds of respondents
in Germany reportedly voted in favor of such a ban.
This plays right into the hands of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen.
On May 12, 2026, during a summit in Copenhagen on AI and child protection, she announced that the EU could propose a Europe-wide
ban on social media for children as early as this summer.
These considerations are reportedly driven by growing pressure from member states to strengthen online protections for minors.
Protecting minors online is really important!
But at this point, we must also be allowed to ask the following question:
Why has online protection for minors only become so important now?
Why wait until millions of children and teenagers have fallen for the “addictive design,” as von der Leyen put it?
Only now, after 12- to 14-year-old boys have long since learned how to use AI to create “deepfake nude images” of
their female classmates and share them on social media.
This means that the faces of classmates can be uploaded and “superimposed” onto pornographic depictions of the human body.
This creates an image that looks deceptively real.
The operators even advertise that they can "undress" anyone they want.
But instead of banning such sites outright, the discussion is limited to age verification, digital
IDs, and a required “review” of uploaded photos.
It is precisely this inconsistent behavior that raises doubts.
And now, while many parents are already virtually powerless in the face of the addictive “social media industry” and
are watching their children literally sink into it, “protecting children” is suddenly being made a top priority.
In this way, a digital surveillance infrastructure can be gradually established—as if behind a “moral shield”—which will
inevitably extend far beyond the scope of “protecting minors.”
After all, how are such “protective” age restrictions supposed to be enforced in the future?
This would require digital identities, age verification, biometric checks, central user
databases, mandatory proof of identity, and much more.
For the average consumer, this would mean that the last vestiges of their autonomy online are at stake!
But that's not all! The EU also seems to be increasingly seeking the legal authority not only to regulate
illegal content, but also to control users' behavior itself.
The Copenhagen summit was hosted by Common Sense Media, a nonprofit organization dedicated to ensuring the
safety and well-being of children in the digital age.
Families should be supported in using media and technology in a healthy way.
At the same time, Common Sense Media is pushing for laws and guidelines designed to
“protect” children and hold technology “accountable.”
Speaking from the stage, von der Leyen said:
“We’re taking action against TikTok and its addictive design—the endless scrolling, the autoplay feature,
the push notifications—everything that goes with it .“
In other words, the EU wants to regulate which algorithms are permitted, what content is “healthy,” which
platform features are “dangerous,” and what information young people are allowed to see.
“The same goes for Meta, because we believe that Instagram and Facebook are unable to enforce their own age limit of thirteen.”
"We are initiating proceedings against X for its massive involvement in the production and
distribution of material depicting the sexual abuse of children ," von der Leyen continued.
A quick look at Common Sense Media's partners, however, raises doubts that their sole concern is child protection.
Partners include: Apple, OpenAI, TikTok, AT&T, and other media giants, mobile carriers, and social media platforms.
This is like putting the fox in charge of the henhouse.
Are the social media platforms that have captivated young people and children now suddenly supposed to provide a solution?
Will the very corporations and networks that are themselves benefiting massively from the AI boom
now also help shape the rules for regulating it?
Things get quite delicate among the partners in so-called philanthropy.
The Bezos Family Foundation, Bloomberg Philanthropies, the Gates Foundation, and a number
of other extremely influential foundations.
The latter was founded by high-ranking Freemason Bill Gates .
The so-called “proceedings” against TikTok, Meta, and X appear to be nothing more than public “show trials” when
these companies simultaneously act as sponsors and partners of “child protection organizations.”
Under the guise of concepts such as “protecting minors,” “combating hate,” or “protecting democracy,”
a system of control can be established that leads humanity straight into a digital prison .
And particularly controversial: The EU is linking real problems—such as child sexual abuse, child
pornography, and addictive behaviors—to increasingly drastic and far-reaching control measures.
There's a devious trick behind this: because this is precisely what makes the desperately needed
resistance more difficult—if not completely undermined.
Anyone who still argues against such measures of total surveillance runs the risk of being
stigmatized as an opponent of “child protection.”
Let's not be fooled, just like in the fairy tale "The Wolf and the Seven Little Goats."
The wolf eats the chalk to make his rough voice sound softer and thus deceive the little
goats—but only so that he can ultimately eat them.
Behind the obviously forced digital ID for every person in the world are “wolves” such as the Rockefeller Foundation,
Bill Gates, the World Bank, the UN, the IMF, the EU, and others, whose intentions are by no means “benign.”
Let’s recognize and expose those soft, gentle voices when they talk about “more child protection”!
Wolves are wolves! Period!
