Govt. Will Require PSE to Draft DPIA for All Online Products, Services and Features Accessible to Child Users

In January 2024, the government introduced the second amendment to Law No. 11 of 2008 on Information and Electronic Transactions (“ Law 11/2008 ”) through the issuance of Law No. 1 of 2024 (“ Second Amendment ”).
