Work to make the Internet safer for young users, and to reduce victimization of online harms.
On this year’s #SaferInternetDay we encourage you to do your part in making the Internet a better place for all, especially young users. CleanDNS is a proud to be a member of the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) who is doing impactful and vital work in the global fight against online harms against children. As a proud member of the IWF, CleanDNS encourages you to take a moment today learn about the IWF’s mission including their recent #ThinkBeforeYouShare campaign, which aims to open a dialogue between parents and teens on the dangers of sharing explicit photos amongst young people, as well as the harmful normalization of the sharing of their own and others’ explicit images.

Cross-industry collaboration for abuse management best practices is essential.
In late November 2024, CleanDNS and Abusix announced the Secure Internet Pledge, a cross-industry initiative championing the accountability, transparency, and collaboration of domain name and hosting industry organizations to create a safer online environment for all. The Pledge is built on the pillars of core abuse management practices, enhanced security and support, and transparent policies and processes, aimed towards the shared mission of championing best practices in the fight against online harms.
