  2. UK's Online Safety Act Fails to Curb Harmful Online Content for Children

  6. Hey @loops and @peertube!

    I'm thinking about creating my child accounts on #loops and/or #peerTube instead of doing that on YouTube or TikTok - of course. For creating content as well.

    But what about child protection?
    As far as I can see, there is none built-in at all, right!? Is this a thing even in the #fediverse? This important topic is getting more and more attention in the recent past - which is good - but what are you doing or planning about it? Is there something I missed?

    Sincerely

  11. "The head of child safety at meta just caught in a sting"* attempting to sext with someone he assumed was a 13 year old but was actually an agent for Predator Poachers of Long Island.

    Get your kids off meta. They certainly shouldn't be spending any time alone with closed chat settings.

    *apologies this leader is from one of several articles on the same story which is a route I refuse to click therefore wont share. There us another story on the same event shared in the thread

    Adding some further updates via 'BBC Global Women' on meta and child abuse media and you can make up your own mind about how culpable the head of child protection should be:

  12. The Tobacco Industry Reaps Double Benefits From Children 

    To date, the tobacco industry has not accepted its responsibility for the high number of child labour in tobacco plantations in its supply chain. Child labour in tobacco plantations has the potential to be exposed to short-term and long-term health risks, one of them is the threat of Green Tobacco Sickness (GTS), which is which is a variety of health disorders caused by exposure to nicotine in tobacco leaves both during the harvesting and processing of tobacco........Continue reading....

  13. World Day Against Child Labour 2026

    Lo scorso anno, su Perfettamente Chic, abbiamo approfondito il significato della Giornata Mondiale contro il Lavoro Minorile e le sfide ancora aperte nella tutela dei più piccoli. Se vi siete persi l’articolo, potete leggerlo qui:

    https://perfettamentechic.com/2025/06/12/giornata-mondiale-contro-il-lavoro-minorile/

    Anche nel 2026, oggi, il 12 giugno torna la World Day Against Child Labour, promossa dall’International Labour Organization, con un messaggio forte e immediato: “Red Card to Child Labour: Fair Play for Children, Decent Work for Adults”. In altre parole? Un vero e proprio cartellino rosso contro lo sfruttamento dei bambini.

    La scelta del linguaggio sportivo non è casuale. Nel 2026 la campagna internazionale invita governi, aziende e cittadini a “espellere” il lavoro minorile dal campo di gioco della società, garantendo ai bambini ciò che dovrebbe essere normale: scuola, gioco, sicurezza e opportunità per il futuro.

    Le nuove stime diffuse a livello internazionale mostrano che i progressi continuano, ma la partita è tutt’altro che vinta. Nel mondo sono ancora circa 138 milioni i bambini coinvolti nel lavoro minorile, di cui oltre 54 milioni impegnati in attività pericolose per la loro salute e il loro sviluppo.

    Tra le novità più importanti del 2026 c’è il richiamo agli impegni assunti durante la Sesta Conferenza Globale sull’Eliminazione del Lavoro Minorile tenutasi a Marrakech, che ha portato alla definizione di un nuovo quadro d’azione internazionale per accelerare gli interventi nei prossimi anni.

    La Giornata Mondiale contro il Lavoro Minorile ci ricorda che ogni bambino dovrebbe avere tra le mani un libro, un pallone o una matita, non strumenti di lavoro. E se il tema 2026 parla di cartellini rossi, allora l’augurio è che il mondo intero giochi finalmente dalla parte dell’infanzia.

  14. • 🌍 New Study Links Political Violence to Child Abuse: Research published in Nature Communications reveals a direct connection between exposure to political violence and subsequent violence against children, adolescents, and young adults by family, acquaintances, and peers.

    • 📈 Lasting Impact of Conflict: A 15-year retrospective analysis of data from over 35,000 young people in eight African countries (Côte d’Ivoire, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe) found correlations between past political violence and current emotional, physical, and sexual violence, particularly affecting poorer households.

    • 🧠 Reshaping Attitudes and Behaviors: The study, conducted by international researchers from NRI, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, and LSHTM, provides the first empirical verification of this "chain of violence," demonstrating that conflict's legacy influences behavior and social norms long after violence ends.

  15. just wondering why Apple would list 'slopdetective.kagi.com' as a restricted website, while trying to install the App for a 9-yr old child.

    Besides the Family Sharing 'feature' being an absolute nightmare, like the rest of iOS / iPadOS - if you allow the website, you first need to restart your kid's device for the change to work 🤦🤬, like so many other things.
