MODERATORS
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Paedophiles are being urged to use artificial intelligence to create nude images of children to extort more extreme material from them, according to a child abuse charity.
The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) said a manual found on the dark web contained a section encouraging criminals to use “nudifying” tools to remove clothing from underwear shots sent by a child.
Last month the Guardian revealed that the Labour party was considering a ban on nudification tools that allow users to create images of people without their clothes on.
Hargreaves added that the Online Safety Act, which became law last year and imposes a duty of care on social media companies to protect children, “needs to work”.
According to research published last week by the communications regulator, Ofcom, a quarter of three- to four-year-olds own a mobile phone and half of under-13s are on social media.
The government is preparing to launch a consultation in the coming weeks that will include proposals to ban the sale of smartphones to under-16s and raise the minimum age for social media sites from 13 to as high as 16.
