Increase Usage Of Mobile Web Browsing

Mobile Campaign Launched:

A new survey involving 3,000 parents revealed that eight in ten children do not have parental controls enabled on their mobile phone. The Carphone Warehouse announces a partnership with Tanya Byron, the internet safety expert to highlight the risks of mobile web usage for young people and offering guidance on how to be safe online. A free advice booklet is being offered by the partnership which outlines the key phrases as a basis for understanding what action is needed. Andrew Harrison, CEO of The Carphone Warehouse said, “We know how seriously parents take internet safety when it comes to the home computer. However, the idea of mobile web safety is still a relatively new concept for many.”

Rise In Smartphone Technology:

Professor Tanya Byron said, “Online risks to children are as prevalent when they access the internet via their mobile phone as when they access it via their PC or laptop. However, the two aren’t treated the same partly because the latter is a much more recent phenomenon, the recent influx of smartphones to the market means these are no longer just for business, but accessible to a much wider proportion of the market including children. We need to apply everything that we’ve learnt through our research so far and make sure the same understanding, precautions and restrictions are applied to children using mobile phones to guarantee their online safety.”

Consumers may also want to consider to make cheap international calls with mobile phones or landlines. Now it can be made very easy without fear of heavy phone bills. The simple and easy way to make calls abroad from the UK to anywhere worldwide is through access numbers.
