Petition Make it compulsory to upload ID when opening a new social media account
Uploading ID and proof of address when creating a new social media account in order to identify a person and to cut down on fake accounts and trolling. If we can identify who is behind a social media account maybe there wouldn’t be as much trolling.
More details
Social media has become very negative in the last 5 years and people of all ages feel pressured to be a certain way and to act happy even though deep down they could be in great pain. It is easy to put on a front to followers and people don’t feel they can talk to anybody about the way they are feeling because they have to come across a certain way to people they do not know.
