    Personalised recommendation feeds powered by “for you” algorithms were repeatedly found by Ofcom to be at the root of the continuing tide of harmful material.

    “We urgently need stronger action from tech companies to rein in features that drive harm to children and stop putting business interests over their safety obligations.”

      “We are paid by big tech to propose solutions to allow more data collection for big tech and frame them as desirable for children and families”
