Movies Online Safety: Britain is The Vanguard-Could Lead to Paradigm-Shifting Surveillance?

British Internet Laws 'Will be Toughest in The World' as Government Backs Duty of Care

Britain Plans Social Media Watchdog to Battle Harmful Content


The Telegraph UK, 8 APR 2019.






LONDON (Reuters) - Britain proposed new online safety laws on Monday that would slap penalties on social media companies and technology firms if they fail to protect users from harmful content.



Britain will have the toughest internet laws in the world, ministers pledge today, as the Government brings in new legislation to protect children online in the wake of the Telegraph's campaign for a statutory duty of care.


Jeremy Wright, the Culture Secretary, and Sajid Javid, the Home Secretary, today unveil their White Paper spelling out plans for a duty of care enforced by a new independent regulator.


Mr Wright said the reforms were the "best way of setting clear, concrete responsibilities for tackling harmful content or activity online" as he paid tribute to this newspaper's nine month campaign.

Easy access to damaging material, particularly among young people, has caused growing concern worldwide and came into the spotlight in Britain after the death of 14-year-old schoolgirl Molly Russell, which her parents said came after she had viewed online material on depression and suicide.


Internet companies could face big fines, with bosses also held personally accountable, under rules to be policed by an independent regulator.




In the most serious cases companies could also be banned from operating in Britain if they do not everything reasonably practical to eradicate harmful content.



“We are putting a legal duty of care on these companies to keep users safe; and if they fail to do so, tough punishments will be imposed,” Prime Minister Theresa May said in a video posted online.

“The era of social media firms regulating themselves is over.”

Media Secretary Jeremy Wright said the proposed legislation - the toughest in the world - would apply to any company that allowed users to share or discover content or interact online, such as social media sites, discussion forums, messaging services and search engines.


GLOBAL WORRIES

Governments globally are wrestling over how to better control content on social media platforms, often blamed for encouraging abuse, the spread of online pornography and for influencing or manipulating voters.

Global worries were stoked by the live streaming in March of the mass shooting at a mosque in New Zealand on one of Facebook’s platforms, after which Australia said it would fine social media and web-hosting companies and imprison executives if violent content is not removed “expeditiously”.


TechUK, an industry trade group, said the paper was a significant step forward, but one that needs to be firmed up during its 12-week consultation. It said that some aspects of the government’s approach were too vague.

“It is vital that the new framework is effective, proportionate and predictable,” techUK said in a statement, adding that not all concerns could be addressed through regulation.

Facebook said it was looking forward to working with the government to ensure new regulations were effective, repeating founder Mark Zuckerberg’s line that regulations were needed to have a standard approach across platforms.


COMPLEX ISSUES

Rebecca Stimson, Facebook’s head of UK public policy, said any new rules should strike a balance between protecting society and supporting innovation and free speech.

“These are complex issues to get right and we look forward to working with the government and parliament to ensure new regulations are effective,” Stimson said in a statement.


Prime Minister May said that while the internet could be brilliant at connecting people, it had not done enough to protect users, especially children and young people.

“We have listened to campaigners and parents, and are putting a legal duty of care on internet companies to keep people safe,” she said in a statement.

The duty of care would make companies take more responsibility for the safety of users and tackle harm caused by content or activity on their services. The regulator, funded by industry in the medium term, will set clear safety standards.

A committee of lawmakers has also demanded that more is done to make political advertising and campaigning on social media more transparent.

“It is vital that our electoral law is brought up to date as soon as possible, so that social media users know who is contacting them with political messages and why,” said Damian Collins, a Conservative MP who chairs the parliamentary committee for digital, culture, media and sport.

“Should there be an early election, then emergency legislation should be introduced to achieve this.”

Hot re: Britain To POLICE World Web >Online Safety Bill TOUGHEST in World

Web Giants Will be FORCED to Disclose Messages Sent Online by Suspected Terrorists and Paedophiles Under UK Law Treaty Agreed & Signed by The US & UK Home Secretary

  • UK and US agree a new treaty designed to crackdown on online criminality
  • Priti Patel signed an agreement to allow police to demand electronic data
  • It is hoped the deal will help speed up investigations into 'heinous crimes'
Daily Mail UK, 6 OCT 2019.


Web giants will be forced to disclose messages from suspected terrorists, paedophiles and other criminals under a new treaty between the UK and the US.

Home Secretary Priti Patel yesterday signed an agreement that will allow the police to demand electronic data from social media companies such as Facebook and WhatsApp.

The world’s first bilateral data access agreement will speed up investigations into ‘heinous crimes’ by allowing law enforcement agencies to go directly to tech firms.

Under current rules, they have to go via governments – a process which can take up to two years.

It marks the culmination of four years of intense lobbying by the UK and is seen by Downing Street as an essential tool in the fight against terrorism and sexual abuse.

Ms Patel said: ‘Terrorists and paedophiles continue to exploit the internet to spread their messages of hate, plan attacks on our citizens and target the most vulnerable.




Priti Patel, pictured in Manchester on Wednesday this week, has signed an agreement with the US to crackdown on online criminality



William Barr, the US Attorney General, said the deal would 'make the citizens of both countries safer'


‘As Home Secretary I am determined to do everything in my power to stop them. This historic agreement will dramatically speed up investigations, allowing our law enforcement agencies to protect the public.’

US Attorney General William Barr said: ‘This agreement will make the citizens of both countries safer, while at the same time assuring robust protections for privacy and civil liberties.’ Under the new treaty, the US will also be able to request data from UK web giants.

The way it will work is that the police and other law enforcement agencies will submit requests for information to a judge, magistrate or other independent authority.

The agreement does not apply to encrypted messages because even the web giants themselves do not have access to such information.

In the case of WhatsApp, which uses end-to-end encryption, the government will be able to get the ‘meta data’ more easily, such as details on who has sent messages and when.

In addition, Miss Patel and her US and Australian counterparts have written to Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg calling for a halt to its plans to bring in end-to-end encryption across its messaging service.

They warned that such a move would ‘significantly increase the risk of child sexual exploitation or other serious harms’.

It came after Europe’s top court ruled yesterday that Facebook can be forced to take down illegal posts such as hate speech from its website. It can now be compelled to delete posts, photographs and videos that break the law of an EU nation.

And a national court can force Facebook to take down the content worldwide, the European Court of Justice ruled.

The ruling came in a case brought by Eva Glawischnig-Piesczek, former chairman of Austria’s Green Party, after an Austrian citizen said on Facebook that she was a ‘lousy traitor of the people’ and a member of a ‘fascist party’.

Facebook had refused her request for both the original post and similar duplicates to be deleted.

‘This will dramatically speed up investigations.'

Britains' Online Safety Bill Holds Tech Firms to Account

Revised Online Safety Bill Proposes Fines of 10% of Revenue But Drops Harmful Communications Offence


Social media firms face big UK fines if they fail to stop sexist and racist content


BBC 29 NOV 2022







Social media platforms that breach pledges to block sexist and racist content face the threat of substantial fines under government changes to the online safety bill announced on Monday.



Under the new approach, social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter must also give users the option of avoiding content that is harmful but does not constitute a criminal offence. This could include racism, misogyny or the glorification of eating disorders.

Ofcom, the communications regulator, will have the power to fine companies up to 10% of global turnover for breaches of the act. Facebook’s parent, Meta, posted revenues of $118bn (£99bn) last year.

A harmful communications offence has, however, been dropped from the legislation after criticism from Conservative MPs that it was legislating for “hurt feelings”.

Ministers have scrappedthe provision on regulating “legal but harmful” material – such as offensive content that does not constitute a criminal offence – and are instead requiring platforms to enforce their terms and conditions for users.

If those terms explicitly prohibit content that falls below the threshold of criminality – such as some forms of abuse – Ofcom will then have the power to ensure they police them adequately.

Under another adjustment to the bill, big tech companies must offer people a way of avoiding harmful content on their platform, even if it is legal, through methods that could include content moderation or warning screens. Examples of such material include those that are abusive, or incite hatred on the basis of race, ethnicity, religion, disability, sex, gender reassignment or sexual orientation.

However, firms will not be able to take down content or ban a user unless the circumstances for doing so are clearly set out in the terms of service. Users will also have to be offered a right of appeal to protect against arbitrary content removal or account bans.

The revival of the much-delayed attempt to rein in tech firms comes as Meta was fined €265m on Monday for a breach of data protection law after the personal details of more than 500 million people were published online.

The bill, which returns to parliament on 5 December after being paused in July, also contains new provisions on protecting children. Overall, the legislation imposes a duty of care on tech firms to shield children from harmful content, but the updated bill now includes provisions such as requiring social media companies to publish assessments of the dangers their sites pose to children. Sites that carry age limits – which for most big social media sites is 13 years old – will have to set out in their terms of service how they enforce them.

The culture secretary, Michelle Donelan, said an unregulated social media industry has “damaged our children for too long”. She added: “I will bring a strengthened online afety ill back to parliament, which will allow parents to see and act on the dangers sites pose to young people. It is also freed from any threat that tech firms or future governments could use the laws as a licence to censor legitimate views.”

The shadow culture secretary, Lucy Powell, said the government had “bowed to vested interests” by scrapping the legal but harmful provision.

“Removing ‘legal but harmful’ gives a free pass to abusers and takes the public for a ride. It is a major weakening, not strengthening, of the bill,” she said.

Online Safety Bill Debate: Could it Lead to ‘Unprecedented Paradigm-Shifting Surveillance’?

Britain is The Vanguard, and Meredith Absolutely Killed it. Concise and Precise, Professional and Sounds Like She Absolutely Knows What She's Doing.


BBC NEWS 8 JUL 2023





Big tech is being taken to task by lawmakers across the world.


Accused of exposing children to harm, and using and abusing millions of people's data, legislation is being brought in to regulate platforms like Facebook and Google.

Britain is in the vanguard, but its Online Safety Bill has attracted criticism from messaging apps like WhatsApp and Signal, concerned that in the drive to protect users, privacy is being undermined.


We spoke to Meredith Whittaker, the president of the Signal Foundation, which runs an encrypted private messaging app, and Conservative MP Damian Collins, a former tech minister who played a key role in developing the Online Safety Bill.
