Bebo adopts the Ceop Report button for kids. Jim Gamble says "I am applauding Bebo - it's taken us three years to get here. But I don't understand - and there is more than Facebook in this - I don't understand the logic for the others not following suit."
Several sites including Bebo, MSN Messenger and Facebook already give users the chance to alert staff to abuse, but now Bebo has gone further by adopting the Ceop Report button itself.
Bebo said it was "committed to providing its community with the safest possible environment" and its decision was praised as "very responsible" by Sir Hugh Orde, president of the Association of Chief Police Officers.
"I can see no reason why other sites would not consider adopting the same approach and would encourage them to embed the Ceop Report button for the benefit of all users," he added.
