Council of Europe recommends self-regulation / labelling
The Council of Europe adopted a recommendation to its member states where it strongly supports self-regulatory
approaches to help protect children and preserve free speech on the internet. Self-labelling is very much encouraged,
and the recommendation gives a lot of detail to the criteria for self labelling. See the
full text here or
the
press release here. (The Council of Europe brings together 43 European nations and is
quite separate from the European Union).
