12. Return of the Online Safety Bill

As a revised Bill comes back to parliament under a new-look government, Vicki and Geraldine discuss what’s changed, and whether it’s for better or worse.
Talking points:

• Where are we?
• The ’triple shield’ - better than ‘legal but harmful'?
• Can end-to-end encrypted messages ever be scanned for child sexual abuse material and terrorism without compromising privacy?
• The Bill depends heavily on age assurance tools. How long is it going to take to get public buy-in?
• Can you really protect children online if the internet remains a haven for adult hate speech and toxic content
