On Monday, the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, presented a highly anticipated report on child safety online and pledged a social media ban to protect children in the EU. But what would this measure entail? Why is it stirring debate? And what else can the EU do to hold Big Tech companies more accountable? 

 

To discuss these and more questions, Brussels, My Love? talked to Sara Brandstätter, tech reporter at MLex, Simeon de Brouwer, digital policy advisor at European Digital Rights and Jean Cattan, co-director of the think tank Future Technology Institute.

Brussels, My Love? is Euronews' weekly podcast hosted by Méabh Mc Mahon, giving you all the context you need to make sense of the European Union (EU).


From plans to transition from an economic trading bloc to a military powerhouse to bans on tofu sausages, you’ll discover how EU laws are debated and created, along with sharp analysis from some of Brussels’ brightest minds.
