UK lawmakers unite in agreement, extending the Online Safety Bill to cover the metaverse, ensuring safety regulations in virtual environments
UK lawmakers urge that the Online Safety Bill should encompass activities in the metaverse, raising concerns about children's online experiences.
During a parliamentary session on July 12, members of the House of Lords debated whether the proposed legislation should address "certain harmful content" that users may encounter in virtual environments like the metaverse. The focus was on how regulations can tackle potential risks, especially for children who may come across objectionable material online.
