The federal government tabled its third attempt at online harms legislation this week, but left out some of the most controversial elements from the last two.
Bill C-34, known as the Safe Social Media Act, was tabled by Culture Minister Marc Miller on June 10. It would create a new digital safety regime for social media platforms, AI chatbot services, and other online services, aiming to reduce harmful content online and make online service providers more “transparent and accountable.”
