A great Portuguese writer wrote that ‘children are the best thing in the world’. In this regard, everything that we can do to protect them from the evils of the society to which they belong must be done. The advent of the internet age has brought many dangers to its users, especially children and young people for whom it is often a second home. Amongst internet users aged between 10 and 17, 15 % have been subject to invitations of a sexual nature. Moreover, there are abuses involving sexual exploitation and pornography that must be stopped. It has therefore become of the utmost urgency to create legal certainty for internet users. We all remember the recent images of a girl who killed herself because she was the victim of sexual harassment and cyber-bullying. The protection of children is an imperative for European society and it has to take appropriate measures to achieve this protection. I voted in favour of the report drawn up by Silvia Costa on protecting children in the digital world because it promotes a responsible digital citizenship, making parents and educators aware of the need to educate and inform their students of the danger that uncontrolled use of the internet represents."@en1
