How Google's New Reporting Protocol Will Change Child Protection Efforts in India Google has announced that it will now report child sexual abuse material directly to Indian authorities, following Meta's similar decision.
This move is a response to intense pressure from the Indian government and has significant implications for both technology companies and law enforcement agencies worldwide.
The current system of reporting child sexual abuse material through the US based National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) has been criticized by Indian officials, who argue that it leaves children vulnerable due to delayed reports.
