United States: End To End Encryption: Will The Online Safety Bill Breach Human Rights Laws? [telecom]

by Geraint Lloyd-Taylor (Lewis Silkin - AdLaw) 

The Online Safety Bill is due to make a come-back – Commons Leader
Penny Mordaunt has confirmed that it is provisionally due to be
debated on 5 December 2022. The Bill was introduced during the era of
Boris Johnson, then delayed due to the Tory leadership race, survived
Liz "Tornado" Truss, and has been trimmed and tweaked quite
considerably by Rishi Sunak's government.

The return of the Bill comes as more concerns have been raised about
Ofcom's powers under the draft Bill. In the current draft, Ofcom will
have authority to require tech companies to deal with terrorism and
child abuse content on private messaging apps such as WhatsApp,
Facebook Messenger, Telegram and Signal.

*  Well, your guess is as good as mine: the headline starts off by   *
*  mentioning "United States," but it's clearly a story about an     *
*  English law. I can't think of how it's related to "end to end     *

*  decide.							     *
