The UK passes massive online safety bill
The UK's Online Safety Bill has passed through Parliament and is set to become law. The bill aims to make the UK "the safest place in the world to be online" by imposing strict requirements on large social platforms to remove illegal content and mandating new age-checking measures to prevent underage children from seeing harmful content. However, the bill has raised privacy concerns as it could potentially put encrypted messaging services like WhatsApp at risk. The bill requires encrypted messaging apps to check users' messages for child sexual abuse material, which could potentially break their end-to-end encryption promise. WhatsApp and other encrypted messaging services have protested the bill, leading UK regulators to attempt to assuage their concerns by promising only to require "technically feasible" measures. The fate of these services in the UK remains uncertain.
