Katie Price has said that she thinks anyone who sets up a social media account should have a background check.
The move comes after Katie expressed how angry and upset she was at the abuse her 13-year-old son Harvey Price receives.
The mum of three took a social media stance this week, naming and shaming people who have written disgusting messages about her 13-year-old son Harvey Price.
Talking about her new stance, Katie said:
“You know what? I’m not having this. I’ve had enough. You don’t do that to anyone, and when it becomes about my son I will always run to defend him.
“It would upset me if I read it about someone else’s child, let alone my own. Some of these people have been doing this for a while and they’re the ones I’m going after.
“I’ll name and shame them all. I’m not going to stop on this now – I’m on a mission. If I can help others in any way, I will.”
She added:
“There should be background checks for anyone who sets up a social media account.
“If you want to hire someone for a company, you check them out. It should be the same for getting a Twitter account.
“Users should need to fill in forms and pass a test. They should have to give addresses, phone numbers and so much more.
“There needs to be a proper verification process so when stuff like this happens, trolls can be found and action can be taken….
“Trolling is bullying, it’s torturing – it comes in all different categories but it’s all the same. They’re hurting people."
We couldn’t agree more with you Katie, we hate trolls too.
