I suggest that when the new commissioner is appointed, that might be something that should be looked at. That is a scourge that is there in social media and that is doing much damage, particularly to the youth in our country. There are people who for their own reasons are constantly resurfacing and putting things out and they are not being tracked or got at in any way. There needs to be some regulation. If something like that could be done here, that would be quite beneficial. Maybe Ireland should think about taking a lead. The platforms have all of the information as to who those ISPs are and they can certainly track the people who are using that access to post what they are posting. That would do a lot to help to clean it up.
