The Communications Minister announced a review of the Basic Online Safety Expectations (aka BOSE/"the expectations"). They wanna add "ensuring the best interests of the child is a primary consideration for all services used by children, and that services should implement measures to prevent children accessing age-inappropriate content", "minimising the creation and amplification of unlawful or harmful material through generative artificial intelligence", "processes for detecting and addressing hate speech which breaches a service's terms of use" and "regular transparency reports to explain steps being taken to keep Australians safe online". You've got until the 16th of Feb to have your say on the changes. Unfamiliar with the BOSE? Read up on eSafety's website.
