The world of social media can be an odd and disturbing place, and an unexplained rise in cyberbullying of French children born in 2010 has prompted Burger King to act.

It has been derided by France’s Education Minister Jean-Michel Blanquer who described the harassment campaign as “completely stupid and against our values.”
