Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has expressed outrage at tech companies for their failure to remove violent and extremist videos, especially following the tragic case of Axel Rudakubana. Rudakubana, who killed three young girls and injured several others, accessed graphic content and materials linked to extremist groups. Cooper criticized social media platforms for not adhering to their moral responsibilities and emphasized that the upcoming Online Safety Act will enforce stricter removal of illegal content. She warned that non-compliance could lead to harsher penalties, advocating for stronger protective measures, particularly for children.
Despite her previous letters, Yvette Cooper condemned tech companies for failing to remove harmful content, calling their inaction disgraceful and a breach of moral duties.
The Southport killer, who accessed disturbing violent content, exemplifies a disturbing trend where tech giants aren't taking responsibility for illegal and harmful material.
