Are social media platforms doing enough to tackle abuse online?

Ofcom has warned that social media abuse is driving female athletes out of sport and urged platforms like X and Instagram to take stronger action.

The regulator recommends steps such as prompts to reconsider harmful messages, blocking payments for misogynistic content, and improving tools to block multiple accounts.

Ofcom's chief executive said online abuse - especially misogynistic and racist pile-ons - creates a toxic environment, harming not only athletes but anyone in public roles.

Critics, including broadcaster Lianne Sanderson, argue that the proposals don't go far enough and call for mandatory ID to open accounts.
