Feb 7, 2020 at 13:43 comment added phoog @MSalters but we're talking about the terms of service, not any country's requirements. The terms of service allow 13-15 year olds to create accounts everywhere except for the EU, which means that 13-15 year olds in the EEA and the UK can create accounts.

Feb 7, 2020 at 0:00 comment added MSalters @phoog: The GDPR doesn't actually require countries to have a minimum of 16; that's only the default. The GDPR mandated minimum is 13; between 13 and 16 it's up to the Member States, and by extension also to Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein. More than half the states do not use the default. Norway uses 13

Feb 6, 2020 at 22:00 comment added phoog Stack Exchange has perhaps overlooked the fact that some EU law, including the GDPR, applies to some countries that are not in the EU. The terms of service allow 13-to-15-year-olds in Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein to create accounts. Do they really mean to do that?

Feb 6, 2020 at 21:12 comment added gnasher729 Interesting question. Not so many years ago, some film companies had sold rights to German TV companies to transmit their films for five years anywhere within the Federal Republic of Germany. And then suddenly the population of the Federal Republic of Germany grew overnight by almost a third. Obviously the film companies wanted more money, while the TV companies didn't want to pay. Can't remember the outcome.
