"Safer Internet Centre has published a report on young people and unreliable and misleading content online. Findings from the report, which surveyed a group of over 4,000 children aged 8 to 17 and their parents in December 2020, include: 77% of children said that being online was a more important part of their life than ever before; almost half (48%) reported seeing misleading content every day and more than one in 10 children reported seeing it more than six times a day; 62% have had friend requests from people they don't know; and 78% think online platforms should do more to tackle misleading online content."
