A major legal change is coming to Germany as Chancellor Friedrich Merz throws his support behind a 16-year-old age limit for social media.
The German government is worried that young people are being targeted by online manipulation and "fake news" campaigns.
Both of Germany’s main political parties now agree that children need to be protected from "addictive" social media feeds.
While some politicians want a total ban for those under 16, others are suggesting "youth versions" of apps that don't have endless scrolling or automatic video play.
The Chancellor warned that influence from outside the country is using social media to misinform German youth, making it a matter of national safety.
Because of Germany’s laws, the individual states must now agree on a single set of rules to make the ban official across the entire country.
