Social media sites' inaction facilitating cyberbullying of children

Groups representing children want new legislation, which will establish a Media Commissioner, to mark the end of self-regulation for tech and social media giants.

Social media platforms are allowing the continued cyberbullying of children by refusing to take meaningful action when complaints are made.

The ISPCC and the Children's Rights Alliance have also hit out at social media companies for prioritising profits ahead of the mental wellbeing of children.
