The UK government has requested that tech firms activate built-in features or develop technological solutions to prevent children from accessing nude images on mobile devices. These expectations were outlined by Prime Minister Keir Starmer at the London Tech Week conference. Apple and Google have been given until September to implement such measures, according to the Guardian and the South China Morning Post. Under the proposed framework, all adults would need to verify their age to take or view nude images on devices subject to the controls, as reported by the South China Morning Post. The government believes inaction on child online safety is unacceptable. Tech companies will face legislation if they do not comply. The Guardian and the South China Morning Post reported the three-month deadline, while the Mirror.co.uk stated the UK would become the first country to enforce such technical restrictions, though this claim is not corroborated by other outlets. The Bluesky report cited Starmer’s direct appeal to companies to prevent children from sending and receiving sexually explicit images.
