In this episode of The Brussels Beat, Javier Espinoza speaks with Cani Fernández, President of Spain’s National Commission for Markets and Competition (CNMC), about whether EU member states can go beyond the Digital Services Act and impose national social media bans for minors.
They discuss Spain’s push to require age verification tools, the growing momentum across Europe to restrict under-16 access to social media, and whether national measures risk fragmenting the EU’s single market.
