UK to demand social platforms take down abusive intimate images within 48 hours
Summary
The Register reports the UK government plans to amend the Crime and Policing Bill to compel social platforms to remove abusive intimate images within 48 hours of flagging. Platforms face potential fines or service blocks if they fail to comply. The proposal places these images alongside child sexual abuse and terrorism content and mentions automated takedown ideas, Ofcom oversight, and context from the Grok-related controversy.
