True.Useful.Kind is a new organisation dedicated to encouraging everyone, who ever or wherever they are, to think before they post online. in an age when social media has become one of our main sources of information and opinion, it is too easy for anyone, from world leaders to school children, to upload their thoughts, without considering the consequences. 

​

Not only can such comments be hurtful to others, they can even leave the commenter facing a criminal record: they may fall foul of the The Hate Crime, Defamation or even Libel laws, for example. There are also concerns about the social media and moral implications of spreading what has become known as 'fake news'. 

​

True.Useful.Kind was founded in 2017 to combat the growing sense of unease about aggression, hostility and misinformation on the internet.
