Stranger Things Online: Navigating Child Safety in the Digital Age
summary
Describes a specific online network called 764 COM that grooms 8–16 year olds, with perpetrators aged 12–20 and about 80% of victims girls, operating on mainstream platforms like Discord and Roblox where bans are routinely bypassed via VPNs. Europol builds an operational response, Project COMPASS linking 28 units, while EDPS blocks a central facial recognition deployment for under‑12s and records 33 completed prior consultations with more pending; Discord moderation gaps and non‑privacy‑preserving age verification proposals remain unresolved.
