X has introduced age assurance checks following obligations under Ireland's Online Safety Code. This new regulation mandates platforms like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and X to incorporate age-checking processes to protect younger users. X's approach includes a multi-step method for verifying or estimating if users are 18 years or younger, which will help in applying necessary settings to restrict access to sensitive media, including pornography. The verification process will start with assessing highly reliable signals for age confirmation.
In response to the new requirements under Ireland's Online Safety Code, all major platforms including X are mandated to implement age-checking measures to protect younger users.
X will utilize a multi-step age assurance approach where legally required to verify if users are 18 or under, ensuring they can apply appropriate access restrictions.
