英国授权社交媒体平台封锁网络鞭笞或面临巨额罚款。 UK mandates social media platforms to block cyberflashing or face massive fines.

科技秘书Liz Kendall已宣布新的英国规则, 要求社交媒体平台检测并移除未经请求的清晰图像, Technology Secretary Liz Kendall has announced new UK rules requiring social media platforms to detect and remove unsolicited explicit images—known as cyberflashing—or face fines of up to 10% of global revenue or service bans. Kendall在工党大会上发言时强调,自2024年1月以来,网络打击在英格兰和威尔士已成为刑事犯罪,可判处两年以下徒刑,但网络打击必须被视为网上非法,因为网络打击是离线的。 Speaking at the Labour Party conference, Kendall emphasized that cyberflashing, now a criminal offense in England and Wales since January 2024 with penalties up to two years in prison, must be treated as illegal online as it is offline. 现在,平台必须积极主动地防止此类内容,特别是防止未成年人接触此类内容。 Platforms must now proactively prevent such content, especially from reaching minors. 一项YouGov研究发现,英格兰12至18岁的女孩中有32%是自发获得男性生殖器图像的,其中5%受到影响。 A YouGov study found 32% of girls aged 12 to 18 in England received unsolicited images of male genitals, with 5% affected. 此举以先前消除自杀和自残相关内容的行动为基础, 强化政府承诺在网上保护用户。 The move builds on earlier actions to remove suicide- and self-harm-related content, reinforcing the government’s commitment to protecting users online.
