Child protection online:

Rishi Sunak, UK’s prime minister, has a big Tory rebellion on his hands, re the new internet safety law currently going through parliament.

“ Under the rebels' proposals, senior managers at tech firms could face up to two years in jail if they breach new duties to keep children safe online. The provision would not apply to search engines.

These duties include taking "proportionate measures" to stop children seeing harmful material, including through measures such as age verification, taking content down, and parental controls.”
