Abstract

At the first meeting of the DETF, members agreed that use of digital economy tools and technologies for the victimization of children is morally abhorrent and of urgent importance. From this point, we set out to frame the policy discussion in a manner that enables the digital economy to grow while creating an inhospitable environment for those who seek to abuse it. We realize that piecemeal regulation can’t tackle a global issue, but we believe these initial recommendations can lead to a broader exploration of these issues beyond this report.
