The History of Safer Internet Day

Safer Internet Day is a worldwide initiative whose goal is to make the Internet a better and safer place for everyone. Observed in February, what started out as a campaign to raise awareness about Internet safety that started about 10 years ago in Europe, it is now celebrated in over a 100 countries worldwide.=

Safer Internet Day was originally started in 2004 by InSafe – a European network of Awareness Centres promoting safer and better usage of Internet. However, it quickly spread out from Europe and became a worldwide initiative. In 2012, it would gain official recognition in the United States with a joint agreement between the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the European Commission. Today, it’s celebrated in over 100 different countries.

Internet Safety for Schools, Colleges & Businesses

Safer Internet Day (SID) is organised by the joint Insafe-INHOPE network, as part of an effort by the European Commission, to educate children and kids worldwide into using the internet safely.

It's a great opportunity for everyone - School, College, Business's and Government to reform Phone and Internet overuse.

We guide people to a safer internet. It's time to talk about Tech & The Internet.

Safer Internet Day - It’s not just about the kids

We think more emphasis ought to be given to Adults however governments worldwide are afraid to challenge large Tech e.g. Microsoft, Facebook, Google and this list includes a small company too, Snapchat. Google enjoys according to various accounts up to 97% of the search market. It’s unhealthy for an organisation to exist on this scale. 

Many adults just logon onto the net and go from there without thinking much about it, unaware of the real risks placing our wellbeing, money, family's in peril. Near 70% of Phone, laptop users use no protection online at all and use NO privacy settings at all. Time to change that, we think. Same as the tobacco, alcohol campaigns of 60 years ago.
