<p>The UK is committed to upholding freedom of expression online. Our new online safety
laws will safeguard pluralism and ensure internet users can continue to engage in
robust debate online.</p><p>Under the new regulatory framework, both Ofcom and in-scope
companies will have duties relating to freedom of expression, for which they can be
held to account.The largest social media platforms will be required to have clear
and accessible terms and conditions, and to enforce their terms and conditions consistently
and transparently. Furthermore, new obligations for transparency and user reporting
will enable users to more effectively understand and appeal content removal. This
will both empower adult users to keep themselves safe online, and protect freedom
of expression by preventing companies from arbitrarily removing content.</p><p> </p>
