Are parents going to be arrested for pictures of their kids in the bathtub? Or at least are they going to be blurred?
edit: But we live in a country where everything is illegal but rarely anyone is arrested for it so that's somehow ok /s
Or, if your time and money allows it, deny that option and take your kid into the doctor in person.
No. Because this magical new software will prevent such pictures.
Which means that not only will it blur it, it will also report it and you will be processed for a picture of your kid for the doctor or when the "fail safe" software fails.
They're talking about anime and how UK is not making any, nor is it significant market of to be infliential to, yet nevertheless consuming it in ever larger quantity over the years, unilaterally receiving cultural influence with no leverages, not even cash flow that can be choked off. Lots of these "CSAM" stuff is inflated with imaginary kids and trafficking angles to hide that intent, but it boils down to that.
Otherwise the action taken would be to assigning more police officers or otherwise assigning more resources to support kids IRL. They're not doing that. They only want speeches suppressed.
I don't know why they don't just tax social media for it, though. CDN bandwidth for foreign user-generated contents can be measured. Maybe because they just don't like fictions at all, but that ship had sailed like, thousands of years ago.
My county went from 56 youth support officers to just 2 in the last few years. But yes, government(s) that cares about children /s
We must never forget the Five Eyes global surveillance apparatus exposed by Edward Snowden [0]. And never forget that elite child predators are protected by governments [1].

Does it need to be written into the Kernel? Or how does it work?
I think we're probably not far from the world of Watch Dogs. As for whether it will become 2077, we'll have to wait and see.
Though there's still these lads I think? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lords_Spiritual
At this point why they don’t record everything from our microphones? It will prevent many tax evasions and crimes.
Anyone talking about CSAM has missed the point entirely.
The ‘won’t somebody think of the children’ argument that already got IDing everyone online through as a social media age gate.
Who is this "you" in your post?
>>The house of lords as it was would never have pushed this kind of thing.
That is an astonishing statement given their previous stances on various issues. What gives you that confidence? But heridetary peers or not, house of lords doesn't belong in Britain of 2026.

Watching the government trying to pass mental laws and having them rejected by people with no skin in the game.
Democracy doesn't work when everyone's in it for themselves, and the public are easily manipulated.
They were pushing out today that they're going to add, well, what they call a ban for under 16s, which really means strong ID for everyone else, to access eBay and Vinted in case kids use the messaging functions on them.
It'll be TCP next. Then you'll need government permission to blink.
Its funny, every time I talk to a brit they seem very intelligent and reasonable but then they've been happily electing people who make their country into an extreme surveillance state, labor & conservative both. I think their accent just makes them sound smarter than they are.
To stop the “production” you would need real time scanning of the camera when taking pictures and video and disable the ability to save if csam is detected.
- Saving, as before.
- Sharing, works, but due to a glitch the recipient got a blank blank image/video. He'll sure reply to let you know, but unfortunately incriminate himself in the process.
- Deleting, as before, no sorry, bugger, I/O error, can't delete this file. But support team has your address and is on their way.Highly curious about how they'll be able to do that.
Will they force apple to release ios27 for an iPhone 4?
Remove “illicit” from this headline and you get a better idea of what’s happening.
Perhaps they should focus their energy on reducing pedophilia in their leadership and monarchy instead of spying on their people? (Oh right that’s the whole point of this legislation in the first place… Nevermind…)
