        The App should be banned or blocked if they won’t help protect children. Disgraceful .@Kik

        This is shocking. As parents and carers we need to try harder to understand what our children are doing online and build the necessary trust for them to tell us when things aren't right. We can't rely on the platforms to do this for us.

        This makes me so angry. If @Kik make it difficult for police to pursue enquiries on a national/local level, when the evidence indicates the social platform is being used to abuse/groom children then they deserve @AnonymousPress to create a virus to screw kik’s app up #FYouKik

        They don't. They respond to law enforcement requests as necessary and as pretty much every major platform does.

        This article was referred to in a tv interview with a police force in the UK this evening. The police are finding it difficult to get Kik’s compliance!
