A child online safety advocate's calling for stronger restrictions on access to pornography after a coroner's linked a teen's death to content found on the internet. 

The inquest found the teen had probably been attempting to imitate sexual acts seen online in 2024. 

Advocate Holly Brooker told Andrew Dickens New Zealand's done little to regulate the online space.   

She says other countries are moving forward, while we lag behind.
