THE Fiji Online Safety Commission (OSC) has reminded the public on social media to refrain from sharing, re-sharing and disseminating material online that could cause the exploitation of minors.
The warning was issued in response to complaints about adults inappropriately sexualising children on social media.
Commissioner Filipe Batiwale said people need to report harmful content through the proper channels, and refrain from giving further exposure to offensive materials.
He said the dignity of minors needed to be protected as they were entitled to be protected from such exploitation.
“We understand the anger and frustration when people see harmful content involving our children online,” Mr Batiwale said.
“Let us protect the dignity, privacy, and wellbeing of our children and uphold the values we wish to see reflected in our online communities.”
