00:02I've been investigating a dangerous online network
00:04and I think every parent needs to know it exists.
00:07This network hides in plain sight
00:10on platforms millions of children use every day.
00:13Roblox, TikTok, Discord.
00:16Most of these young people get drawn into these worlds
00:19without even trying.
00:20They're just going online, playing a game.
00:23But this is only one piece of the puzzle.

00:31It's known as the COM or 764
00:33and targets vulnerable children.

00:38and pressured into doing things they don't want to do.
00:41In the documentary, we speak to victims,
00:43investigators, COM members
00:45and experts who've been tracking the COM
00:48in the UK and across the world.
00:50Understanding the warning signs is so important.
00:53Other things parents could be aware of more
00:55is the satanic Madrid.
00:57The new form of what I refer to
00:59as modern-day terrorism in America,
01:01764 crime.
01:02I think it's so easy for children
01:04to get drawn into these worlds.
01:06And I think that's the massive concern
01:08for parents all around the world,
01:11that what can start off being a game
01:14could end up ruining their life.
01:16Our documentary, The COM,
01:17online sadistic and deadly,
01:18is available now on the Sky News app website
01:20and the YouTube channel.
