More than nine out of ten Europeans want action to be taken on protecting minors online.

Omissions

• The MEP did not cite the specific Eurobarometer survey, though the data is readily traceable to the Special Eurobarometer on the Digital Decade 2025 and 2026.
• The 2026 survey frames the question as a 'high digital priority,' while the 2025 survey frames it as 'urgent action by public authorities.' The exact wording of the survey question may differ slightly from the MEP's phrasing, though both clearly exceed the 90% threshold.
