Britain’s Prince Harry is demanding that governments around the world introduce digital ID mandates to lock down the internet, forcing all users to prove who they are before accessing online platforms.
Harry has joined globalist calls for governments to impose age-verification systems.
The former royal appeared at the European Parliament in Brussels to promote the European Union’s KIDS Act.
The sweeping proposal would require platforms to verify every user’s age through a system certified by public authorities.
Anyone whose age “cannot be established” could have their account disabled.
That would threaten not only children’s accounts but also adults who use anonymous or pseudonymous profiles and refuse to submit personal identification.
Prince Harry Praises EU Age-Verification Plan
Harry opened the “Lost Screen Memorial,” an installation featuring 50 smartphone-shaped light boxes displaying lock-screen photos of children whose families blame their deaths on online harms.
He later appeared on a panel titled “Beyond Promises: Building a Digital Future That Works for Children.”
The event brought together Harry, child-safety activists, and European Commissioner for the Mediterranean Dubravka Šuica.
The panel overwhelmingly endorsed the EU KIDS Act, which would require online platforms to deploy age-verification technology approved by government authorities.
Harry praised the legislation’s “unified approach” and argued that the burden should fall on technology companies rather than parents.
“[A] unified approach, starting with turning the burden of proof on them rather than on parents is the best place to begin,” Harry said.
Harry also endorsed restrictions on platform features such as infinite scroll.
“It should be simple enough to disallow that feature,” Harry said.
He argued that the internet must be redesigned around what he called “safety by design.”
