The "Verband der deutschen Internetwirtschaft - eco" (association of German internet enterprises) and the Voluntary Self-Monitoring of Multimedia Providers FSM run hotlines for complaints on illegal and harmful internet content for many years now. For the first time, they offer users on just one website both a possibility to inform themselves about several aspects of safe internet use and a possibility to submit complaints, which are handled according to the division of responsibilities between eco and FSM. eco and FSM are founder members of INHOPE, the international umbrella association of internet hotlines and complaint offices.
