You knew it had to happen. Keeping kids safe online is THE priority in 2023. Our government needs to do much more. Big Tech does not do enough. It’s up to us. #CommunityCreatesChange The Warriors has partnered with GABB Wireless.
Why GABB? There is a growing problem among children with unlimited access to the internet and other online platforms. Kids are being exposed to harmful content and unhealthy interactions. These dangers come in all shapes and sizes. Learn why Gabb is here, and what we are protecting our children from.Excessive screen time can cause setbacks in children’s health and their social and emotional development. This can hinder their ability to engage in the typical everyday activities that enable them to learn about the world and themselves. Social media is the most common place where kids are exposed to mature content, bad language, extreme ideas, and damaging interactions. Kids can even fall victim to perpetrators, cyberbullies, and sex crimes. Explicit content is media that portrays provocative, sexual, or inappropriate content. This may be constituted as bad language, sexualized or pornographic images/videos, or acts of violence. Cyberbullying is the use of technology to harass, threaten, or embarrass a person. This abuse includes sending compromising message, hacking, rumors, posting embarrassing photos, and this list goes on and on.
