What happened
The EFF has filed a submission to the OHCHR Call for Inputs on Child Rights and Safety in the Digital Environment, which will inform a report to the UN Human Rights Council at its 64th session in Q1 2027. The submission argues that access restrictions and sensitive-data verification requirements can reduce young people's safety and infringe privacy, and it covers AI-mediated services, legislation in the US, Indonesia and Australia, and digital literacy. It recommends systemic interventions, platform accountability for design and surveillance-driven business models, and meaningful youth participation in regulation. No specific vulnerabilities or patches are involved.
