Kenya’s cybercrime law is raising questions about how far governments should go to protect citizens online.
It tightens penalties and expands takedown powers - but critics fear overreach into freedom of expression.

It's unlikely a representative sample of UK adults has experience of CSAM sharing – I mean, one hopes – so really this survey is only reflecting back scaremongering about #e2ee #encryption from the Government and campaign groups like IWF www.iwf.org.uk/news-media/n...

#masssurveillance #techpolicy
● Survey shows 92% of people in the UK are concerned about the sharing of child sexual abuse on end-to-end encrypted (E2EE) messaging services ● Just under nine in ten (88%) adults agree that UK government should require tech companies to use 'upload prevention' method in E2EE environments to detect images and videos of child sexual abuse ● IWF says the safety method is a technically feasible way to detect child sexual abuse in E2EE spaces that preserves privacy and upholds the rights of victims and survivors

The AI story is a fascinating paradox. 🤔 Wall Street is getting nervous, yet OpenAI is begging for more data centers, and scientists are finding quantum keys in basic crystals.

Market jitters, massive infrastructure, and science.

A flat-iconic cyber-neo-minimalist design with a bold grid layout featuring a central circular hub representing the AI brain split into five pie-slice quadrants for research, industry, policy, applications, and culture. Radiating line-art circuits connect the hub to peripheral icons (paper, rocket, gavel, toolbox, paintbrush) with tiny binary code rain embedded in the background. A hand-drawn neuron sketch with synapse points doubles as clickable hotspots, while micro-gradient textures shift from light (research) to dark (industry). The composition includes a transparent world map overlay with faint data-point clusters, glowing back-lit outlines on data nodes suggesting real-time flow, soft diffusion around human silhouettes for ethical considerations, and high-contrast spotlights on headline icons. The top-left banner features a stylized soundwave forming a "µ" symbol, with a bottom-right tagline strip containing a 10-minute timer icon, all rendered in vibrant vector-based SVG for infinite scalability.
