Tech firms must remove ‘revenge porn’ in 48 hours or risk being blocked, says Starmer

AI Summary
Keir Starmer has announced that tech companies in the UK will face potential fines or blocking if they fail to remove "revenge porn" and deepfake nudes within 48 hours of being notified. The proposed measures aim to shift the burden of tackling online abuse from victims to perpetrators and the platforms enabling it. Amendments to the crime and policing bill will regulate AI chatbots, like X's Grok, to prevent the generation of nonconsensual images. Ofcom will be empowered to enforce the ban, potentially using digital watermarks to automatically flag reposted images. Internet providers will also receive guidance on blocking rogue sites specializing in nonconsensual explicit content.
