Open Rights Group: “Tell your MP to attend the debate on the Online Safety Act”

The Online Safety Act […] has enabled a wave of questionable age-assurance providers, restricted free expression by wrongly censoring lawful content, and made it harder for communities to run their own small websites … Parliament will debate this critical issue on 15th of December 2025. It’s time to make them understand what is at stake … Write to your MP to tell them to attend the debate and why it is important for you. It’s time to speak up before it’s too late!

Online Safety Act consultation : Threat to protest and political content

The Online Safety Act The Online Safety Act (OSA) has given Ofcom powers over what we say, see and do online. Services have to comply with a large set of complicated rules and regulations. They risk heavy fines and even imprisonment if they don't comply. Crackdown on protest and political speech Here’s what’s coming in this consultation: 1) AI scanning for 'illegal' content Tech platforms will be forced to scan posts for 'illegal' content and remove it before it's even published.
