Make all social media platforms verify their users by official identification
All social media platforms to make their users verify their accounts using official identification to stop trolls hiding behind fake accounts.
Close down all platforms until they comply with official verification.
Currently a person can make a profile without any traceability, giving them a free pass to troll and racially abuse others.
Children of any age can set up accounts simply by adjusting the year they were born without any official ID required.
The damage this sort of abuse and underage usage is causing serious harm to the public.
Death threats, racial abuse, grooming and more is happening everyday and the perpetrators are not traceable or held accountable for their actions.
