Mother of 11-year-old girl who killed herself after viewing 'horrific and disturbing' images blames social media giant for her death
53-year-old acclaimed novelist Nicola Harlow whose 11-year-old daughter Ursala Harlow committed suicide slammed social media giants over their inability to monitor their content
53-year-old acclaimed novelist, Nicola Harlow, has demanded retribution from social media giants like Facebook and Instagram saying that it was due to their inability to monitor their content that her 11-year-old daughter Ursala Harlow committed suicide.
Ursala was able to access a variety of disturbing content, which disturbed the child's psyche, leading Ursala to jump from a bridge to her death last January. Nicola's accusations will put high pressure on media giant, Instagram, which is owned by Facebook, and campaigners and media personnel have accused the media companies of dismal failures and their lax approach in policing the troves of 'suicide porn' on the site.
