India: Meta to report child abuse cases to law enforcement
Tech giant Meta will now directly report child safety-related cases to India's cybercrime portal, according to media reports. DW has more.
Meta has agreed to report child safety-related matters, including child sexual abuse cases, to law enforcement agencies in India, as reported by Indian media outlets on September 15. The US tech giant has come under fire in India over alleged paid advertisements promoting AI-generated child sexual abuse material on its Facebook and Instagram platforms.
This move is a first step towards making the platforms safe for children, and the Indian government is engaging with other online platforms to ensure proactive identification and removal of such content.
