Mobile Phones and Other Devices Capable of Connection to the Internet (Distribution of Sexually Explicit Images and Manufacturers’ Anti-Pornography Default Setting) Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill would require manufacturers of phones and internetconnected devices to include a preset safety feature that blocks sexually explicit content. It also aims to make it harder for people to share illegal explicit images through these devices. The bill focuses on putting protective technology in place at the device level rather than relying only on laws or parental controls.

Presented by Geraint Davies.
