Legal opinion finds Online Safety Bill may breach international law
Open Rights Group has received legal advice from Dan Squires KC and Emma Foubister of Matrix Chambers, which states that measures in the Online Safety Bill may involve breaches of international law.Open Rights Group
The opinion finds that there is “likely to be significant interference with freedom of expression that is unforeseeable and which is thus not prescribed by law”.
