The European questionnaire on Information and Communication Technologies Data reveals that there exists a disparity between the internet usage of people from different age groups. This disparity although present in most countries, differs widely in its severity.
In 2020, the average percent of users between 16 and 24 in the European Union (EU-27) was 57, while only 22 percent of users between 55 and 64 did the same. Users between the age of 16 and 24 in Poland and Italy uploaded their own content at a comparably low rate of below 50 percent. While 55- to 64-year-old users in Denmark and Norway uploaded self-created content at a significantly higher rate than the same age groups in other European countries.
