Instagram for children like alcopop , Oireachtas group hears

  An Instagram for children platform would be akin to an “alcopop” used to recruit for future commercial gain, an Oireachtas committee has heard. He was addressing the Oireachtas Committee on Media during its pre-legislative scrutiny of the Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill 2020 and broader issues around children’s use of social media platforms. Asked about reports that Facebook was considering launching a version of its popular Instagram platform for users under the age of 13, Mr Church replied that “anything that’s set up directly at kids is almost like the alcopops for platforms. It’s just a form of a private platform trying to recruit for future sustenance.”

Warning over time children spend online amid pandemic

Social Affairs & Religion Correspondent Children are open to online exploitation, grooming, cyber-bulling and exposure to harmful internet content due to the amount of time they are spending online during the pandemic, according to the Children s Rights Alliance. The CRA has published its annual Report Card, which grades the Government on the commitments it has made in relation to children. It has said that while the Government published the Online Safety and Media Regulation Bill in December 2020, it did not establish an independent complaints mechanism for children and young people if a tech platform failed to uphold their rights online. Now that most children and young people are accessing their peers and education online, the alliance has reiterated the need for an Online Safety Commissioner.
