There’s no escaping Ofcom’s regulations. On 23 January, Ofcom fined a video-sharing platform for not having robust age verification measures to protect those under 18 from accessing restricted material. While this fine predates the Online Safety Act, the message is clear: Ofcom means business when it comes to ensuring compliance. Register for our workshop on the Online Safety Act, hosted by the ODDA, to learn what Ofcom expects, what’s at risk—apart from fines—and how to create a compliance measure that doesn’t drive away users.

At the Digital Impact Alliance we have been thinking about how DPI impacts people - both positively and negatively. A bottom up way of protecting consumer interest and safeguarding people against potential risks within the DPI context is through Online Dispute Resolution (ODR). Over the last two months, I have had the privilege to learn with David Porteous how DPI requires ODR for effective grievance redressal at scale, and ODR requires a DPI approach to become embedded in digital transformation initiatives. We've had excellent guides through this process who shared their learnings and insights on understanding, deploying, and scaling ODR systems within DPI along with co-authoring this expert comment that is the first in a series of three. Sachin Malhan, Deepti George, Melissa Koide, Tanushka Vaid, Matt Grasser, Ahmed Dermish Chittu Nagarajan. Would love to talk to you if you are thinking of ODR and GRM in the context of DPI. If you are at the DPI Summit, do participate in the side session today on the topic.

When clients were preparing to comply with the Information Commissioner's Office’s Age Appropropriate Design Code aka the Children’s Code, my advise was always that this was part of a bigger picture which they needed to allow for as the Online Harms to become the Online Safety Act continued its legislative journey. Given the overlapping and aligning matters between their work, the ICO and Ofcom have been collaborating for some time on this topic which goes beyond #ageassurance. This joint statement between the regulators highlights how that work will continue and more emphatically how together the regulatory bodies can achieve the objective and priority to keep people safe online, in particular, children. As we anticipate Ofcom’s consultation on the second phase of the OSA and its Children’s Code next week, clear the decks, this statements underlines how businesses will also need to be collaborating internally as regulators are. #ChildrenOnline #collaboration #onlinesafety #data #JoinTheDots

Technical Bulletin ? ### Non-Compliance of MOB Devices with the New AIS Class-M Regulation (IEC 63269)### ? Currently, only one certified device on the market comples with the new ECC Decision and its stringent requirements, including the capability to receive a DSC acknowledgment. All MOB devices lacking the capability to receive DSC acknowledgment messages are now categorically non-compliant with these regulations. ? In Denmark, Italy, Switzerland, Ireland, Slovakia, and Moldova, the use of previously compliant units is now strictly prohibited. This critical regulation must be acknowledged and acted upon immediately. ? In other countries, including Germany, Belgium, the United Kingdom, Hungary, Luxembourg, North Macedonia, and Montenegro, a formal ban on the usage of non-compliant devices has not yet been enacted. However, it is anticipated that these nations will soon adopt the new regulations, rendering the continued use of such devices illegal. ? The Netherlands stands as an exception, currently applying a "Grandfather" clause that temporarily permits the use of existing products. However, this is likely a provisional measure and could be revoked. ? As the AIS Class-M standard (IEC 63269) is currently a European mandate, the use of MOB1 devices remains allowed in the USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. However, it is imperative to note that the Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services (RTCM), a prominent body based in the United States, has recognized the significant merits of the European regulation. Given the RTCM's endorsement, it is highly probable that the USA, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand will soon align their regulatory frameworks with this European standard. Such alignment is anticipated due to the undeniable benefits in maritime safety and operational efficacy provided by the AIS Class-M regulation. Stakeholders in these countries must prepare for this regulatory shift and ensure that their MOB devices comply with the forthcoming standards to avoid potential non-compliance issues. ? Our product, the easy2-MOB, is currently the only market offering that is fully compliant with the new regulation, having been certified by a notified body and featuring self-floating capabilities. This positions the easy2-MOB as the leading choice for adherence to the latest AIS Class-M standards.
