Background

We think Organised Child Abuse Activist Groups should be banned from live streaming content. These activist groups may engage in communication with adults online and imitate being a child.

Additional details

They may also live stream on social media the suspects home address, pre investigation/charge which we think puts many at risk of harm. We think the issue with OCAGs posting and live streaming a suspects location, home address and name, as well as there image causes many safeguarding concerns. First of all, an investigation has not been carried out, the suspect identified by the OCAG group may be completely innocent, and we think it impacts a fair trial. We think it may also put family members, including children at the addresses at risk of harm from other vigilante groups.
