Safeguarding is used to protect people on the internet, mostly children of all ages and those less able of being aware of danger. Safeguarding stops harmful and explicit content from reaching people. It is important that people are protected on the internet because it is very easy for someone to come across something that may be classed as inappropriate or vulgar.
For example, some YouTube videos have red flags on their videos that show that the content within one of their videos may not be appropriate for someone under the age of 18. If someone wants to view that video, they have to have an account that says that they're or over the age of 18. This stops young children from accidentally clicking on something that they shouldn't looking at.
