Under a Prime Minister’s decision, the first national-level programme aims to protect the privacy of children and prevent and handle acts of abuse.
It focuses on supplying children with age-appropriate knowledge and skills so that children can self-identify and be able to protect themselves when online.
It will also maintain a healthy network environment, develop an ecosystem of Vietnamese applications for children to learn, socialise and express themselves in a safe and creative way.
Websites with the national “.vn” domain and those with IP addresses in Vietnam will be required to self-categorise content suitable for children’s ages.
Network operators and digital platform providers such as Google, Facebook, and Zalo will apply artificial intelligence technology and big data analysis to filter videos and clips with malicious content./.
