At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"Ofcom is fast-tracking its decision on new rules requiring tech companies to block illegal intimate images online, citing an "urgent need for better online protections for women and girls." The regulator had previously proposed that sites and apps implement "hash matching" technology to detect and remove non-consensual intimate content, including deepfakes. Originally slated for later this year, Ofcom's final decision on these crucial measures has now been brought forward to May."
Donations enable The Independent to fund reporters covering major issues like reproductive rights, climate change and Big Tech while keeping journalism free of paywalls. The outlet investigates financials such as Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and produces documentaries like 'The A Word' about American women fighting for reproductive rights. Ofcom is expediting rules requiring tech companies to block illegal intimate images online, including deepfakes, and to adopt "hash matching" technology, moving the final decision to May with measures under the Illegal Harms Code expected this summer. Additional online safety decisions, including livestream protections for children, will be made in autumn.
