Petition Prohibit convicted sex offenders changing their name or using social media

I want the Government to prohibit convicted sex offenders from changing their name, or being able to use any social media. At present it is too easy for sex offenders to hide their identity and make contact with potential victims on social media.

More details

Preventing convicted sex offenders from changing their name or being able to use any social media should help reduce the risk of convicts going on to offend again.
