ISPCC: Child safety measures don’t go far enough

Recommendations on how to protect children while using the internet do not go far enough, claims the ISPCC.

The Oireachtas joint committee on children and youth affairs has made 18 recommendations on cybersecurity for young people

They include the appointment of a digital safety commissioner tasked with consulting with social media platforms to strengthen their safety policies for children; and the appointment of teachers as “digital safety ambassadors” in primary and secondary schools.
