The Online Safety Act in focus: key challenges, implementation, and navigating Ofcom’s approach
On 26 October 2023, the UK’s Online Safety Act received Royal Assent. In the first of our ‘Online Safety Act in Focus’ series, we outline some of the challenges arising from the Act for online platforms, search engines and tech companies. We also provide an overview of Ofcom’s approach to implementing the Act, the regulator’s prospective consultation launch in November and how in-scope services can best prepare for the new regulatory regime coming into force.
