YES - HILARY CHAMBERLAIN, POLICY MANAGER, PARENTLINE PLUS
I am very concerned web site videos featuring children and young people involved in violent and malicious acts are not censored. This is of great concern to parents.
Parentline Plus runs an anti-bullying campaign called Be Someone to Tell that aims to raise awareness of the problem and encourage victims to speak out. There also doesn't seem to be a limit on the age a person has to be to upload this material in the first place - this needs to be tackled.
