Tech giants such as Apple, Microsoft, Google and Meta face fines of almost $800,000 a day if they don’t come clean on their progress in combating child exploitation and sex abuse material on their platforms.
Google’s director of public policy, Lucinda Longcroft, said the company had developed a range of technologies to proactively detect, remove and report child sexual abuse material and contributed to international databases to combat abusive content.“We remain committed to these efforts and working constructively and in good faith with the government and industry on the shared goal of keeping Australians safer online,” she said.
The watchdog had sent the companies “targeted, surgical questions” and required them to answer in a specific way, “which is basically our way of saying, ‘don’t try and put a spin on it’.”
