Internet Watch Foundation says ‘worrying’ trend shows criminals are casting their nets wider to trap victims.
Analysts at the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) are preparing for an increase in public reporting of criminal material as a result of millions of people self-isolating at home.
A new campaign warning children of the dangers of sharing sexually explicit images and videos has been launched, with an appeal for parents and young people to openly discuss these issues.
Chris joined the IWF in February 2012. He is responsible for the running of the hotline, which receives inbound reports from all over the world and proactively searches for child sexual abuse material.
The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) takes reports of online criminal content through its website iwf.org.uk. The IWF’s remit includes criminally obscene adult content hosted in the UK.
