UN urges swift action to shield children online
The United Nations called for urgent action to protect children from online information risks, warning that over 80% of young people aged 15 to 24 use the internet, where they face dangers such as misinformation, harassment, algorithmic biases, and artificial intelligence exploitation. The statement cautioned that business models relying on attention exploitation and personal data increase these risks, especially as AI advances rapidly beyond efforts to counter them. It emphasized that children and youth play an active role in content creation and advocating for their causes, which necessitates protecting them from digital threats and manipulation of their minds and identities.
