“The Brave Movement strongly backs the draft legislation to end childhood sexual violence announced today by the European Commission under the leadership of the EU Commissioner for Home Affairs.
“In the EU, digital spaces are in some cases completely unregulated – exposing children to the threat of horrific sexual violence and exploitation. Technology companies have the tools to detect and remove online sexual violence materials, and we will continue to put pressure on them to prioritize child safety ahead of anything else. This legislation will for the first time enforce mandatory rules on Big Tech – to detect, report, and remove sexual violence material which endangers children and adolescents and violates their rights.
