'Encrypted online chats are a digital playground for paedos' says Sajid Javid as the Tory MP backs new amendments to the Government's Online Safety Bill
"This is a playground for paedophiles. This is something where they can share this imagery and stuff and not be frightened of getting caught in any way or being punished because this is a digital playground," said Javid.
"Its about using new technology to prevent this kind of crimes," explained Javid, adding: "we’ve got to do more". "I think that people will be shocked to learn that that's what's happening with this kind of end-to-end encryption. What the Government, working with industry, the IWF , and others have come up with is a privacy friendly way to pre-screen such content," Javid added."There's no third-party access, but it pre-screens it and prevents the uploading of child sexual imagery and videos so they cannot be shared.
