Reddit has been fined £14.47m by the UK’s data watchdog for unlawfully using children’s personal information.
The Information Commissioner’s Office said the platform failed to properly check the age of its users, putting children using Reddit at risk of being exposed to inappropriate and harmful content online.
In a statement, Reddit said it "didn’t require users to share information about their identities, regardless of age, because we are deeply committed to their privacy and safety."
