Abstract

Following the Online Safety Act, Ofcom has published its guide for tackling harms and risks online. But critics argue that these guidelines don’t go far enough. Sonia Livingstone analyses the concerns raised and argues that more and smarter regulation is needed that’s up to date with the way children use the internet. The UK Government needs to be ready to push back against the likes of Musk and Zuckerberg who promote further deregulation of their sector.
