UK Regulator Ofcom Warns Social Platforms on Online Safety Act Amidst Belfast Riots
UK regulator Ofcom has issued an open letter reminding social media platforms of their legal obligations under the Online Safety Act 2023 to mitigate illegal content, particularly hate speech and incitement to violence. This follows civil unrest in Belfast, where riots erupted in immigrant-heavy neighborhoods. Elon Musk's retweets of content critical of immigration and the UK's judiciary have drawn attention.
