UNICEF: 20% of teens face online abuse

The article addressed the risks teenagers face online, especially through social media platforms, which include exposure to sexual harassment and psychological pressures resulting from excessive use and the practices of major companies like Meta. Studies have shown that 20% of adolescents aged 12 to 17 experienced sexual assault in the past year, with most perpetrators knowing the victims beforehand. Additionally, 60% of assault cases occur via platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and WhatsApp, with some cases also reported through online gaming. The report recommends the need to strengthen child protection laws, enhance safety measures on digital platforms, and impose strict age restrictions on social media use—steps that some countries, such as Australia and the United Kingdom, have already begun implementing to mitigate these risks.
