Online Safety Act and TWTD 21:42 - May 2 with 955 viewsNeedhamChris

Seen quite a few forums shut down as a result of the OSA - how much of this is over-caution? Interested to know how it impacts TWTD - especially given the burden of the risk assessments that all online forums are required to complete.

Well meaning legislation, but too broad a brush?

Yes I've seen sites close down and it's totally OTT. The OSA does affect us and I will be making some changes but largely we do what is required already.

Good to know.

A couple of the ones I've seen close look like it might have been an excuse for the mods to get out of it. Glad to hear you and Phil are still glutton for punishment.

Will you need to know our ages?

I need to speak to someone about this but my OPINION is that children using this site can only be targeted if their ages become known. I'm going to add to the T&Cs that this is an adult only website and we'll remove those that become known as underage. Kids that are mature and debate well and hide their age I think are OK but I need that clarified.

Doing the risk assessment, there is a difference between sites that are children centric and those that have a small percentage of child users.

Knowing your age seems pointless as you can lie.

Well it's about protecting children and people in general from harmful and illegal content. Stopping firearm sales and organising terrorism are extremes we don't have to deal with but it's all about reporting content and getting it removed and any additional action required..

I need to make it easier to report Direct Messages, and have a new page on Online Safety, amongst other things.
