This morning, the UK regulator Ofcom released its Children's Safety Codes. These are the regulations that platforms will have to follow to protect young users and abide by the Online Safety Act. Platforms will have three months to carry out a risk assessment and bring the codes into effect. Ofcom can start enforcing the regulations from July. The most significant aspect is the requirement for strong age verification. Anita Rani hears from Baroness Beeban Kidron, founder of Five Rights, an international NGO working with and for children for a rights-respecting digital world, and Ian Russell, Chair of the Molly Rose Foundation. Ian's daughter Molly took her life at the age of 14 after being exposed to harmful content online.A new report says 91% of organisations in the UK's women and girls sector have seen a rise in demand for their services, but only 52% expect to be able to meet it. The report - from Rosa, the UK fund for women and girls - also found that 1.8% of charitable giving goes to women's charities although they represent at least 3.5% of charities. Anita is joined by Rebecca Gill, Executive Director at Rosa UK fund for women and girls and Cecily Mwaniki, Director of Utulivu, who support Black, Asian, Minority Ethnic and refugee women, girls, and their families in Reading.According to campaigners, people who have committed murder, manslaughter or stalking offences should be forced to live in restricted areas after being released from prison on licence. Anita is joined by BBC journalist Gemma Dunstan and law-change campaigners Rhianon Bragg and Dianna Parkes. 29-year-old Pippa White shares her daily life as a vicar to millions of viewers on TikTok. She joins Anita to discuss being a young woman in the Church, making religion fun and connecting with a younger audience.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Rebecca Myatt

Free speech is facing an unprecedented crackdown across the UK and Europe. The UK's Online Safety Act and the EU's sweeping Digital Services Act are driving small forums offline, pressuring U.S. platforms to silence users, and even tasking British pubs with policing conversations under new “hate speech” rules. Is this the end of open dialogue in the West?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support.

In this episode, we unpack BitChute's bold decision to block access to its platform for UK viewers in response to the UK's new Online Safety Act of 2023—a move that has sparked international concern over free speech and internet censorship. While critics warn the law sets a dangerous precedent, BitChute deserves credit for standing its ground and protecting its principles, all while continuing to support UK content creators by allowing them to upload and share their videos with the rest of the world. We explore the broader implications of this shift and what it means for the future of online freedom.

With Ofcom's duties and guidance around illegal harms and content, services' transparency, the safety of women and girls, as well as the protection of children all being published in 2025, it's undoubtedly an important year for the implementation of the Online Safety Act.But with geopolitics becoming more unstable, tech companies pivoting in controversial ways – including Meta rewriting its policies on ‘hateful conduct' and removing fact-checkers – and tech like generative AI becoming part of daily life, we have to ask: is the Act too vulnerable to external changes, and can it actually regulate the online world?The Online Safety Act Network was set up to connect and inform civil society organisations on the status of the Act and its implementation. In this episode, the Network's director, Maeve Walsh joins Vicki to help assess how the Act is faring currently, and how it might possibly fare in the future.Talking points:To what extent are Ofcom overlooking safety-by-design measures in favour of addressing harms that have already occurred?Why are ‘small but risky' services so controversial in the context of the Online Safety Act?How might the Government strengthen the Act against both global developments and developments in tech?Tech Shock is a Parent Zone production.

With the FSU's support, the Chairman of the Metropolitan Police Federation – Rick Prior – is suing his own union after he was ‘cancelled' for suggesting frontline officers are increasingly nervous about challenging people from ethnic minorities whom they suspect of breaking the law, given the spate of internal investigations into officers accused of being ‘racist'. Following an interview on GB News in October 2024 which led to his suspension, Mr Prior was also locked out of his emails and IT system and told he wasn't allowed to speak to the press or comment on social media. As reported in The Telegraph and with the backing of the FSU, Mr Prior is taking legal action against the Police Federation of England & Wales and you can support Rick here. In other news, on Monday 17th March, the Online Safety Act's latest phase of duties came into force. They require social media platforms – on pain of massive fines – to identify and remove illegal content. Sites must complete risk assessments detailing how they deal with illegal material and implement safety measures to deal with the risk. The Telegraph reports that dozens of small internet forums have already blocked British users or shut down as new online safety laws come into effect, with one comparing the new regime to a British version of China's “great firewall”. Interestingly, the importance of internet forums and online anonymity was raised at our ‘From Faith to Faithless' event last week. When labouring under the pervasive influence of a ‘high control' religion, anonymous online communication becomes an essential ingredient for those taking their first tentative steps back to the wider world. ‘That's Debatable!' is edited by Jason Clift.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.public.newsGreat Britain seems like a free nation. In recent years, there have been mass protests against everything from Israel's war with Hamas to fossil fuels. Newspaper editorialists denounce the government in strong terms daily. The nation draws upon hundreds of years of demands for free speech from intellectual giants, including John Milton, John Stuart Mill, Thomas Paine, and George Orwell.But today, Britain appears to be descending into tyranny. In 2023, Britain's parliament passed the Public Order Act and Online Safety Act to crack down on protests and online content and then failed to pass the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Act that same year. Then, last summer, the Keir Starmer Labor government appears to have deliberately spread disinformation about the high-profile killings of three little girls to justify censorship and repression of anti-mass migration protesters and rioters.
Australia made waves in 2024 after it passed an amendment to the Online Safety Act of 2021, which introduces a legal minimum age of 16 to create and use an account for certain social media platforms in Australia. It also requires platforms within scope to implement age-gating practices. As Australia's first eSafety Commissioner, Julie Inman-Grant, whose agency administers the Online Safety Act and the Social Media Minimum Age amendment, has been at the forefront of regulating online safety since her appointment in 2017. With a background in the private sector, including stints at Microsoft, Twitter and Adobe, Inman-Grant has a wide-ranging view of the online space and the harms within it. IAPP Editorial Director Jedidiah Bracy recently caught up with Commissioner Inman-Grant to discuss her work in online safety, what's currently underway regarding age-gating requirements for social media and the effects AI will have for online safety and harms.

Follow Parent Zone on social media for all the latest on our work on helping families to thrive in the digital age. Presented by Vicki Shotbolt.

Every Thursday, we bring you a shorter, snappier episode filled with inspiration, creative news, and practical tips to carry you through the week. Whether you need motivation or insights, we've got you covered! This week, we were joined by Barrington Reeves, founder and creative director at Too Gallus, a Glasgow-based studio shaking up the traditional agency model. We looked into the evolving landscape of creative agencies, highlighting how smaller studios are seizing opportunities thanks to the democratisation of technology and changing client demands. The conversation touched on how agile, lean teams can achieve brilliant results, making them an increasingly attractive option for clients navigating economic challenges. Barrington shared his insights into the nuances of pitching, the importance of building strong client relationships, and the entrepreneurial drive behind Too Gallus. He also reflected on personal growth, the dynamics of agency expansion, and the role cultural connections play in shaping creative industries. Looking ahead, Barrington envisions creating a vibrant hub that fosters innovation while staying deeply rooted in culture. In Creative News this week, Apple is set to launch a revamped Siri powered by advanced large language models in spring 2026. Meanwhile, Apple Intelligence will integrate third-party AI tools this December, including OpenAI's ChatGPT, marking a significant step forward in the company's AI strategy. Elsewhere, Meta is introducing a global "reset" feature for Instagram, allowing users to clear algorithmic recommendations from their feeds. The tool will roll out ahead of the UK's Online Safety Act, ensuring stricter content controls from December. And to celebrate Formula 1's 75th anniversary, Lego is launching a series of F1-themed sets featuring all ten teams. From Duplo to Speed Champions, these models will hit shelves on 1 January 2025. On The Spotlight, our writer Garrick Webster dives into the world of children's illustrators embracing themes of mystery and mild peril. From Helen Brady's haunting folktale-inspired works to Becky Colvin's eerie train story, The Scream Engine, these artists demonstrate how children's literature can blend spookiness with creativity to engage young readers.

While the left side of the paradigm is pushing restrictions on speech that "offends" people of certain categories, the right side of the paradigm is pushing the same and it all eventually relates to a digital ID system and the true end goal of censorship, the censorship of the human. As Starmer and the UK government push the "Online Safety Act" to stop "anti-social behavior" and restrict speech, they're also pushing age verification for children under 16 using social media. While kids shouldn't be on social media, that is not really the real question to be asked. WHY does the government want to restrict kids from being on social media, something they themselves invented in order to push people into contrived categories? The reason for this is simple. Digital ID. Currently, the United Kingdom, Australia and Canada are pushing forward legislation to ban people 16 and under from being on social media, utilizing a digital identification system to confirm this which would in turn lead to every single people being tracked everywhere they go on the internet. Something that Obama pushed forward years ago by the way. Canada's bill is called Bill S-210 and is a complete surveillance network that follows your every click. Meanwhile, Canada has already banned news on social media newsfeeds and has granted HUGE bailouts to mainstream medias while categorizing most alternative media as "hate speech." Regarding so-called "hate speech," The United Kingdom among many governments worldwide are locking people up in prison for in some cases YEARS for saying "insulting things" on social media while freeing murderers and rapists from the overcrowded prisons to make room. Truly the inversion of reason. The German government is arresting people against Israel and raiding people's homes and arresting them if they call politicians "idiots." Jen Psaki recently called for complete restriction of social media. So has Hillary Clinton and recently John Kerry who called for an end to the First Amendment in the United States. Meanwhile, on the right, Trump has said his first task in office is to "crush Anti-Semitism." Kristi Noem has called for a complete crackdown on so-called "Anti-Semitism" as well. Regardless the side of the paradigm, the paradigm remains the same. We must reject it or else submit to a new digital technocratic enslavement system with CBDCs, digital IDs, social and carbon credits scores, 15 Minute Cities and true censorship which goes far beyond social media but instead relates to our very free will, food, shelter and movement. Understand that this is just the beginning and it's on all of us to withdraw from the system and rebuild outside of the paradigm being created on both the left and right.

Is the cost of litigating free speech issues in the UK disproportionately high and what reforms might address the problem? In this episode of Double Jeopardy, Ken Macdonald and Tim Owen, together with leading media lawyer Gavin Millar KC, debate the irony of the Daily Mail's recent victory before the the European Court of Human Rights over the issue of the costs incurred in unsuccessfully defending the paper in high profile defamation and privacy claims. They explore the chilling effect of the eye-wateringly high legal costs involved in High Court litigation and Gavin suggests some radical reforms of the current system in order effectively to maintain the right balance between the right to freedom of expression and the right to defend privacy and reputational rights. The trio also discuss Carole Cadwalladr's pending case before the Strasbourg Court, the prospect of Labour enacting anti-SLAPP laws and the likelihood of bringing the Online Safety Act 2023 into full force given its potential to generate conflict with the Silicon Valley Broligarchy. Tune in for an engaging conversation on media law, free speech, and the political dilemmas facing a new Labour government.
Mick and Jen are on news duty this week, talking cynical steps – or is it honourable intentions? – as social media companies try to get to grips with the Online Safety Act. Elsewhere, there are smiling faces aplenty outside Strangeways, as the Labour Government grapples with its inherited crumbling prison system. Thank the gods of whimsy that Paddington Bear is on hand to cheer us all up. Not Jen, though. He makes her cry. Also, there's contraceptive chaos in Sexism of the Week, and some baffling sponsorship in Jenny Off the Blocks.

Send us a textCan the suppression of free speech escalate global conflicts? Join me, Russ Scalzo, on this episode of Chronicles of the End Times as we unravel the intricate dynamics of worldwide events and their far-reaching impact on our freedom to speak out. With a biblical perspective guiding us, we'll explore prophecies from Isaiah and Amos to better understand the war in the Middle East, potential maneuvers from Iran, and the broader implications for global peace. We'll also spotlight the alarming trends in Brazil and the UK, where dissenters face harsher penalties than violent criminals, raising urgent questions about the future of free speech. Delve into the intricacies of the Online Safety Act with us, balancing the need to curb harmful content against the necessity of preserving freedom of expression. Douglas Murray's insightful commentary provides a sobering look at the risks of overreaching government control. As Christians, it's more crucial than ever to use our voices to share the Word of God boldly. Stay tuned and stay strong in your faith, for the King is coming. God bless you all.Support the show
We're joined by journalist Chris Stokel-Walker, author of How AI Ate The World: A Brief History of Artificial Intelligence – and Its Long Future, to talk about the UK's responses to the recent nation-wide race riots, and in particular, how it's dealing with a certain tech CEO spreading overtly racist disinformation. Chris talks about the Online Safety Act and where it might be expanded in the aftermath of the riots, the challenges of prosecuting Elon Musk, and why any chance of avoiding future outbreaks would require the government to understand social media use through the lens of public health, rather than a problem requiring more technological solutions.

TNT Radio guest host Basil Valentine speaks with Tom Harris from the Free Speech Union, to discuss the febrile context in which the UK Labour government is considering a review of the Online Safety Act 2023, to tackle disinformation, hate speech and incitement to violence, following the recent riots that have divided Britain. He also discusses the complexity and the risk of drafting a new definition of Islamophobia which could easily be weaponised by both sides during tensions, possibly making the matter worse than it currently is.

“As soon as the Southport murders happened, the way Muslims specifically were targeted has made you question again whether we do belong, whether deep down in the end, we're always having to justify our existence,” says Azeem Rafiq, the former professional cricketer on today's podcast. “On an individual level. I'm not sleeping, I'm patrolling around the house, covering letterboxes up, that sort of thing is what all of us have been doing, getting in touch with each other, making sure if you do have to go out, that people know where you are and you're on a very, very high alert.”Today's conversation is about the impact and implications of the racist rioting that followed the devastating and tragic murder of three children in Southport on July 29th.Azeem Rafiq has written a book, called “It's Not Banter, It's Racism: What Cricket's Dirty Secret Reveals About Our Society, records his experiences confronting institutional racism while a player at Yorkshire County Cricket Cub.He is joined by Sanjay Bhandari MBE, who was appointed chair of Kick It Out the anti racism charity in 2019, from where he lobbies government and sports governing bodies for greater black and Asian representation across every level of football, and helped construct legislation for the new Online Safety Act, which was passed earlier this year. We talk about the role of Twitter and it's owner Elon Musk, the role of sports governing bodies and their sponsors, and we ask, for all the talk of it's power to influence societal change, does sport really matter?Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.
