Definición

  • The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) is the only authorized hotline in the United Kingdom through which the public can report inadvertent exposure to illegal content on the Internet. The IWF began operation in 1997 and was formed following an agreement authorizing it to work with Internet service providers, telecommunication companies, mobile operators, software providers, the police, government, and the public to minimize the availability of child pornography online.
