Thierry Henry demands more verification from social media companies over online abuse

Thierry Henry is urging social media companies to ask for more details when setting up profiles, so users can be held accountable if abusing people on their platforms. The former Arsenal and Barcelona striker was the first major sportsperson to take a stand and boycott social media, saying he will remain off those platforms until online abuse is regulated "with the same vigour and ferocity" that copyright infringements are.
