upsetting or offensive websites > upsetting websites > Are web-sites that encourage anorexia and bulimia illegal?
Because eating disorders such as Anorexia and Bulimia aren’t illegal, websites which provide information about these eating disorders aren’t illegal either. Therefore, the Internet Watch Foundation, the organisation that works with to remove illegal material, is unable to do anything about them.
However the organisation Beat – Beating Eating Disorders is working with Internet Service Providers to stop these sites in the UK.
