Overview
- On August 7, Ema Stokholma accused Instagram users of exposing four-year-old Luna Marì to online risks and alleged parents share photos chiefly for likes.
- Her criticism centered on a fan page’s poll asking followers to rate Luna Marì from one to ten, which Stokholma cited as a troubling example of overexposure.
- Belen Rodriguez retorted that Instagram serves as her digital family album and that she decides what her children’s public profiles include.
- The dispute has reignited debate in Italy over sharenting, recalling earlier controversies involving celebrity parents and their children’s digital footprints.
- Privacy advocates say the clash underscores the need for clearer guidelines and stronger EU-level safeguards on sharing minors’ images online.
