Ofcom discovers issuing Online Safety Act fines is easier than collecting them

Ofcom says most Online Safety Act fines totaling over £7 million remain unpaid as platforms structure businesses to evade collection.

Ofcom director of enforcement Suzanne Cater told the House of Lords that the majority of fines issued under the UK Online Safety Act remain uncollected despite over £7 million in penalties on 11 providers. The regulator's largest fine was £1.4 million against 8579 LLC in February. Ofcom is running six enforcement programs and 40 formal investigations covering more than 100 services, including Telegram, TikTok and X, and is working with the UK government to strengthen its enforcement powers.

EU Chief Warns of AI-Powered Hacking, Moves to Rein In Social Media

In her State of the European Union 2026 speech, Ursula von der Leyen warned that upcoming AI models 'will allow hacking on a level we never thought possible' and cited dangers of self-improving models, referencing a Hugging Face incident. She reaffirmed the AI Act as the core guardrail framework and pledged cooperation with Canada, the UK, and other partners. She also proposed a Kids Act banning social media under age 13 and personal accounts under 15, plus a Digital Fairness Act to be proposed in autumn.
