VATICAN CITY - Pope Francis said on Thursday that technology company executives and investors must be held accountable if they put profit before the protection of children, including from easy access to pornography on the web.
“Companies that provide services have long considered themselves mere suppliers of technological platforms, neither legally nor morally responsible for the way they are used,” Francis said. Last month, the United States, Britain and Australia called on Facebook to suspend plans to encrypt its messaging service, saying it would hinder the fight against child abuse and terrorism.
One prominent attendee at the conference is Queen Silvia of Sweden, a long-time activist for children’s rights. “It will not be possible to guarantee the safety of minors in the digital world without the full involvement of companies in this sector and without a full awareness of the moral and social repercussions of their management and functioning.”
Satan

Pope progressive.

Lol
So is the church!
Kind of a smooth move on his part.
LoL. That’s rich. MAGA
That seems like maybe not the best source to quote on child safety - his church certainly doesn’t have a track record of success in that area
He's trying to catch another one
Writing corporate policy is not his domain.
Well the Catholic church certainly isn't doing a good job of it!
Nope! Their parents are!
Uhmm....oook
The irony is not lost on me
the pope lecturing others about child safety
The pope should tell his priests that too!
K-pop
Thankfully the church is not in charge of child safety anymore..
So is he!
Like how the Vatican is responsible to protect children from pedophile priests?
What is his position on Bolivia?
How private company will protect them from pastor?
Killer israel terorist israel
Wow, what a hypocrite!
Your holiness, not sure your church has a lot of room to talk about the safety of children in society....
As safe as a child with a Priest!! newslogan brilliant
euh ... maybe he should look at the Vatican first, I think children are not safe around most of his colleagues. This man is not a real pope he is a JESUIT first, his OAT is not to protect children nor the people but his fellow brothers of the order so ... Think not Pontifex
Sounds like the tech companies should block the church to prevent child abuse. Pope nominated people guilty of sex abuse to investigate sex abuse. 🤔
THE FUCKING IRONY. I guess he means 'safe from catholic priests.'
So is the church, wouldn't you think?
It might be news to many victims that the Catholic Church is worried about child safety.
Cause when the pope is responsible, he nominates a bishop guilty of sex abuse to investigate sex abuse
So don’t leave them with priests ?
Like he’s responsible for protecting children from pedofile priests
Did he tell any of his priests 😳
He should shut his pretending mouth
Your cult leaders ARE responsible for child safety. How they doing so far?
Tech companies: Pope: Come at me, bro!
pope has some nerve. he is ultimately responsible for his priests, nuns who prey on children but he does nothing to the offenders or those who hide/protect them. there should be massive numbers of defrocked individuals turned over to law enforcement. pope should clean up house.
...because the Catholics aren’t trustworthy 👋🏻😈
Unlike Catholic priests eh Pontifex ?
YEA AND HE HAS NO PART IN WHAT HIS PRIESTS ARE DOING TO THE YOUNG BOYS.
