From Australia, Five Eyes intelligence alliance forcing Facebook and Google to shut down live streaming and sharing of child sex abuse
Five Eyes closes on tech child sex deal
Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton will meet security ministers from the Five Eyes intelligence alliance in Washington on Thursday, in a bid to finalise a global agreement that would force Facebook and Google to help shut down live streaming and sharing of child sex abuse.
The top-level forum to be hosted at the White House will coincide with the introduction of a bill today to the Australian parliament that would enact mirror laws with the US CLOUD Act.
This would allow reciprocal rights for both US and Australian security agencies to issue warrants for data held offshore by cloud providers in hunting down terrorists and child sex networks.
Mr Dutton has led a campaign with US Attorney-General William Barr and Britain’s Home Affairs secretary Priti Patel to force the tech companies and online platforms to co-operate with security agencies in stopping the viewing and live streaming of child sex material.
