A new audit found 16 major AI image models could generate realistic fake passports, driver's licenses and national IDs, with a 92% success rate.

The challenge for identity verification is shifting from spotting obvious forgeries to detecting AI-generated synthetic documents at scale.

Ghana is considering age verification requirements for access to online adult content, potentially using national IDs or driver's licenses.

The country joins a growing list of governments exploring age assurance as child online safety becomes a global policy priority.

🚨 BREAKING: Keir Starmer threatens mandatory ID checks to use mobile phones

"Protecting children online is vital, but these are outrageous plans that will fail to address the underlying causes of online harm. This will only result in population-wide ID checks for all of us to use our phones, tablets and laptops.

"Put simply, the Labour Government is threatening ID checks for the internet. No one in a democracy should need to show their passport just to get online.

"These plans would replace efforts for meaningful tech and parental responsibility with performative, authoritarian government control that children can easily circumvent by accessing adult-registered devices. However, for the UK's 50 million adults using the internet, this backdoor digital ID requirement would invoke the death of anonymity and internet privacy.

"The Government's plan very likely means that unless you submit to intrusive identity checks when setting up your phone or computer, there will be a chokehold on your software and internet access leaving you with a child-locked device. Planned restrictions on messaging, streaming and browsing raise the potential of spyware in our pockets that will be exploited for other purposes before long.

"The Government mandating that all phones in Britain require ID and surveillance software is a crossing of the Rubicon that would make the UK one of the most authoritarian internet regimes in the world. This extreme technological censorship requires rigorous public and parliamentary scrutiny that is currently totally missing" - Silkie Carlo | @silkiecarlo

(1/2) We back government announcement requiring tech companies to urgently implement nudity detection and blocking on children’s devices, a pivotal move among a raft of much-needed measures in the battle against child sexual abuse material.

Big Tech companies like Apple and Google have been given three months to activate built in safeguards on smartphones and tablets to detect and block nude images for children.

This will prevent predators from exploiting and abusing victims through their devices, as well as stopping children accessing pornography.

If companies do not act within three months, the government will bring forward legislation to force them to activate the technology.

This will include fines for companies and, as a last resort, we are exploring criminal liability for tech bosses who fail to comply.

91% of online child sexual abuse reports recorded in 2024 contained self‑generated content. Children as young as five are being groomed, manipulated and coerced by online predators into creating and sharing explicit images.

Predators then use these images to blackmail children into creating more extreme content and, in the most horrific cases, children have committed suicide on livestream or engaged in self‑harm.

These features are not about surveillance or policing people’s phones - they are about protecting our children from vile predators.

Over‑18s will still be able to view adult content by providing proof of age.

There is no data collection, no monitoring and no reporting. The device will simply block harmful content across all apps and services.

This will make Britain the first country in the world where it is impossible for children to take, share or view naked pictures on their devices.

Can Europe build a successful EUDI Wallet ecosystem if regulators and industry can't agree on biometrics?

As wallet launches accelerate across Europe, disputes over biometric verification, privacy and identity assurance are creating new uncertainty.

The technology may be ready. Regulatory alignment remains the challenge.

Hot take: most "agentic" failures are just teams letting a probability machine make decisions that were always meant to be rules.

Keep the deterministic stuff deterministic.

Use agents for the fuzzy edges, not the guardrails. #PegaWorld @pega #pegapartner
