It’s the age of social media influencers, and kids are getting on board.
Encouraged by their parents, they’re filling our feeds, vying to be the next big thing. But can children ever really consent? And who’s watching?
Reporters Jessica Longbottom and Carla Hildebrandt meet the Australian parents who say they're setting up their kids' futures.
But there’s a darker side to this new and vastly unregulated world.
Four Corners investigates an online platform where potential predators can pay for photos of children, and looks at what tech companies – including owner of Instagram, Meta – what they’re doing to keep young people safe.
Welcome to ABC News In-depth, where you'll find our long-form journalism and other videos to help you understand what's going on in the world around you.
This episode was originally broadcast as ‘Kidfluencers’ on 20 May 2024 on ABC TV and ABC iview.
