SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): A new one-stop centre for online harms will begin operation in the first half of 2026 to help victims seek faster recourse for harms, particularly those related to cyberbullying, deepfakes and the non-consensual sharing of intimate images.
Named the Online Safety Commission, the dedicated Government agency will be empowered by new legislation to order online platforms to take down offensive content flagged by victims.
