ONLINE SAFETY ACT 2023
A REVOLUTION IN REGULATION
Laura De Boel, Tom Evans and Hattie Watson of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati highlight some of the key features of the Online Safety Act 2023, together with the challenges that companies may face when looking to comply with its
requirements.
The 2023 Act, which will impose extensive new regulatory requirements on an estimated 100,000 companies that offer user-to user services or search services, has been heralded by the government as a development that will “make the UK the safest place in the world to be online”. On the other side of the debate, however, the 2023 Act has been decried as an affront to freedom of speech that will burden companies with disproportionate obligations.
Whichever way it is approached, the 2023 Act is one of the most significant pieces of legislation affecting user-facing services to be enacted in a generation.
