Computer experts are to track down and block online child abuse images in an attempt to reverse the spread of sites used by paedophile groups, the Government announced today. Maria Miller, the Culture Secretary, said analysts would be recruited to uncover and delete illegal pictures rather than waiting for complaints to be made to police. The move was agreed at a Whitehall summit between ministers and representatives of major internet companies, including Google, Yahoo! and BT. The Internet Watch Foundation, which monitors the internet for unlawful activity, is to receive an extra £1m from the industry to enable it to take a new proactive approach to finding child pornography. At the moment it only acts on complaints. Mrs Miller said afterwards: “What we have agreed today is a fundamental change in the way the industry will be working to remove illegal child abuse images that are too readily available online. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...-agree-plan-to-tackle-child-porn-8663647.html Department for Culture, Media & Sport Published:18 June 2013Policy:Making it easier for the communications and telecoms industries to grow, while protecting the interests of citizens Minister:The Rt Hon Maria Miller MP • IWF and CEOP will work together • £1 million of extra funding provided by UK’s largest Internet Service Providers https://www.gov.uk/government/news/...proach-to-seek-out-child-sexual-abuse-content Prob' not enough money.
I can imagine how that interview goes. "I need you to log into kiddie porn sites and delete the pictures." "Not interested!" Incidentally, Anon has been working on that for two years. http://www.catholic.org/technology/story.php?id=43364
