Harmful Material - Lawful but Awful
There has been a significant rise in legal but harmful material online. It can appear in many different forms and often takes us by surprise. It can be upsetting, disrespectful and even downright disgusting. There’s racism, hate speech, explicit pornography, suicide content, the list just goes on and on. But what may surprise us even more, is how often people find it.
Have you ever seen something online and thought ‘How can they get away with that? Surely that’s illegal?’ Online sites, sometimes the most familiar websites we’re accustomed to are consistently keeping harmful material on their servers because it is technically classified as legal. Despite this, even if content is legal, that doesn't mean it isn't offensive. Despite this, people should not be victim to harmful material online!
That's where Report Harmful Content comes in. REPORTING HARMFUL CONTENT BUTTON FOUND BELOW
