Europol arrests 25 users of online network accused of sharing AI CSAM
Briefly

In South Korea, AI-generated deepfake pornography has been criminalized, leading to significant law enforcement action and hundreds of arrests, primarily of teens. However, most countries still lack specific laws against AI-generated sex images involving minors. Europol flagged this deficiency as a major challenge in its Operation Cumberland, which aims to tackle AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM) across 19 nations. As the European Union considers new regulations, Europol emphasizes the need for enhanced investigative methods and public awareness campaigns to deter illegal activities in this domain.
Catherine De Bolle stressed that law enforcement must adapt by developing new investigative tools to combat the rising issue of AI-generated CSAM.
