英国政府宣布2027年春季起禁止16岁以下人群使用Snapchat、TikTok等主流社交媒体平台,同时将限制部分游戏服务,但不涉及多人游戏禁令覆盖英国境内所有主流社交平台,但未明确具体受限制的游戏服务类型,且保留多人游戏的在线参与权限
The UK government have
announced a ban
on social media platforms for British people under the age of 16, encompassing Snapchat, TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and X.com (known hereabouts as MechaHitler.com or Xitter, among other lousy putdowns). The ban is expected to come into force in spring 2027, and will have far-reaching impacts on ye olde videogame discourse, because people do so love to share and talk about games on social media.
The under-16s ban will also directly apply to certain gaming "services", though prime minister Keir Starmer and his minions have yet to specify which. It won't, apparently, "affect the ability for children to participate in multiplayer games online".
