Hotline - FSM

Whether pornography, depictions of violence or hate speech: children and young people can come across problematic and possibly illegal content on the internet.

With the support of the German police, but also many international partners, the Hotline of the FSM ensures that illegal content quickly disappears.

You can help too. If you come across such content, report it to us using this form. Our legal team examines each case on its merits and will take appropriate action if the complaint is justified.
