Here Ofcom hoodwinks the public into thinking the wickedness of X is being addressed, gives the Government a excuse for not grasping the nettle itself, avoids precipitating another 'free speech'/US tech interests row with the US. But actually to tackle CSAM and image based abuse? You must be joking!
Of course, in the UK "regulators" are never really regulators. Their raison d'etre is political: to dress political goals in regulatory clothing, to act as reputational buffer zones, to gaslight outsiders like you and I into thinking regulation exists. But never, god forbid, to regulate.
Ofcom *might* "undertake a swift *assessment* to determine *whether* there are *potential* compliance issues that *warrant investigation*."
Hard to believe, but we waste almost a quarter of a billion pounds of public money annually on this absolute shower of a regulator.
