Freedom United warns traffickers exploit social media to sell children

Anti-trafficking organisation Freedom United warns that traffickers are using social media platforms to groom and sell children, while major technology companies avoid liability under Section 230 of US law, which shields platforms from responsibility for content posted by users. The campaign group argues the legal framework lets BigTech evade accountability for enabling child trafficking, and is pressing for stronger children's rights protections and reform of platform immunity rules.
Why now: Renewed debate over Section 230 reform and tech platform accountability for child exploitation.
