Safer Internet Day is organised by Insafe each year in February to promote safer and more responsible use of online technology and mobile phones, especially amongst children and young people across the world.
On Safer Internet Day 2010 , INSAFE launches the campaign “Think B4 U post”.
Children and teenagers need to be empowered to manage their online identity, including publishing of pictures and videos, in a responsible way. This is why INSAFE decided to launch the campaign “Think B4 U post ! ” on Safer Internet Day 2010. Children and teenagers should be made aware that they can control their online identity, by using the privacy settings offered by social networing services, selecting friends online that they can trust, publishing their own photos after thinking carefully about the potential consequences, and pictures of their friends with their permission.
