Rejected petition: Introduce Laws to Prevent Children Under16 Appearing in Monetised Online Content

Rejected on

1.- Protect Children Under 16 from Exploitation on Monetised Social Media
2- Introduce Laws to Prevent Children Under 16 Appearing in Monetised Online Content for profit by creators online
3- Stop Using Children Under 16 to Generate Income on Social Media Platforms.

We and many others are asking for government to protect children online being exploited and used online for profit and gain. Introduce laws to prevent children Under 16 appearing in Monetised online contents. If law is been changed for under 16s to be banned from Social media they should also be banned from appearing on Monetised pages. There are so many creators using children for gain and profit and facebook does nothing to protect these children online. Some are used in danger
