The latest 'Dove' ad which claims to be fighting the problems of Social Media.
In this ad, a girl is given a mobile phone at 12, is suffering from eating disorders at 14 and in recovery at 19.
What Dove fails to do is point out that kids don't have to have mobile phones and they don't have to watch weight loss or age inappropriate videos - also, the advert is played almost constantly during ad breaks and starts to become annoying.
I wonder if Dove (owned by Unilever) and Social Media are actually working together to piss enough people off in order that people ignore it and the message gets lost.
There's one way to stop online abuse/issues and that is a blanket ban on Mobiles and Social Media use to Under 16s. Between 14 and 16, IT will be compulsory and part of the teaching will be online safety in addition to understanding Crypto as well, but they won't be granted full access until 16.
We also have to stop BigCorps and Social Media working together to 'groom' kids - loss of trading licences and 25 years in Prison should sort it.
