File:Wikimania 2023 - Plenary - 18 August - Lightning Talk - Age-Verification on Wikimedia Projects.webm
Summary
| Description |
English: Video recording for Wikimania 2023 Title: Age-Verification on Wikimedia Projects Legal proposals in the UK (Online Safety Bill), France (Loi visant à instaurer une majorité numérique et à lutter contre la haine en ligne) include mandatory age-verification which would cover Wikipedia. The European Commission is in parallel working on a "Code of conduct on age-appropriate design". It is only a matter of time until such obligations start popping up in jurisdictions across the planet. How should the Wikimedia movement react to such proposals? What arguments do we use when talking to policy makers and the public? Could we agree to some sort of age-verificaiton system on Wikimedia projects? Is it possible to have one without collecting additional information about users? As a movement, it is time to figure out where we want to stand on these questions. |
