面对欧盟的不作为,我们重申对儿童安全的承诺。

内容总结:
【布鲁塞尔讯】因欧盟一项允许使用技术手段检测儿童性侵材料的临时豁免条款于4月3日到期,欧洲乃至全球的儿童保护体系正面临风险。近250家儿童权益组织及相关机构共同对此表示严重关切。
长期以来,多家科技企业通过自愿行动,运用包括哈希匹配技术在内的工具主动检测、删除并举报儿童性侵材料,以阻止对受害儿童的持续伤害。这不仅关乎法律义务,更是保护儿童的核心社会责任。
尽管欧盟机构要求科技企业承担儿童安全责任,但此次豁免条款的失效,直接动摇了企业开展保护行动的法律确定性,影响了平台保护儿童受害者、维护服务安全的既有努力。相关方面未能就延续此项关键保护机制达成协议,令人深感失望。
目前,欧盟机构正在协商制定即时过渡方案与长效监管框架。谷歌、Meta、微软及Snap等签署企业重申,将在遵守隐私保护原则的前提下,继续通过自愿行动保护儿童安全,并在相关人际通信服务中维持防护措施。
我们紧急呼吁欧盟机构尽快完成监管框架谈判,以填补当前法律空白,确保儿童网络保护工作得以持续。

由于允许使用技术检测儿童性虐待材料(CSAM)的《电子隐私条例》豁免条款于今日到期,欧洲可能使全球儿童面临更严峻的恶劣侵害风险。近250家儿童权益组织及众多相关机构对此均表示忧虑。
多年来,许多科技企业主动采取行动检测、删除并举报儿童性虐待材料,其中包含适当运用哈希值匹配技术——这项被广泛使用的工具能有效预防并阻断对受害者的持续性实质伤害。这不仅是法律要求,更是保护儿童的责任担当。
尽管欧盟机构正当地要求科技企业承担儿童安全责任,但4月3日豁免条款的到期,使得那些致力于保护网络社区、救助受害儿童、维护服务完整性的合规平台失去了法律依据。我们对于欧盟未能达成协议以延续现有儿童网络保护措施深感失望,这种不作为极不负责任。
在欧盟机构持续协商即时过渡方案与长效框架之际,签署企业(谷歌、Meta、微软及Snap)重申将持续致力于儿童保护与隐私维护,并将继续在相关人际通信服务中采取自主保护措施。
我们敦促欧盟机构将完善监管框架的谈判作为紧急事项尽快完成。

Today, because of the expiry of the ePrivacy derogation enabling the use of technology to detect child sexual abuse material (CSAM), Europe risks leaving children across the globe less protected from the most abhorrent harm. This concern is shared by a group of almost 250 child rights organizations and many others.
For years, a number of technology companies have taken voluntary action to detect, remove and report CSAM including, where appropriate, through hash-matching technology — a widely utilized tool to prevent and disrupt real, ongoing harm to victims and survivors. This is not just a matter of law, but of protecting children.
While EU institutions rightly expect technology companies to take action on child safety, the April 3 expiry of the derogation clouds the legal certainty that has helped responsible platforms try to protect our communities, safeguard child victims, and preserve the integrity of our services. We are disappointed by this irresponsible failure to reach an agreement to maintain established efforts to protect children online.
As EU institutions continue to negotiate an immediate, interim solution and durable framework, signatory companies (Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Snap) reaffirm their continued commitment to protecting children and preserving privacy, and will continue to take voluntary action on our relevant Interpersonal Communication Services.
We call on EU institutions to conclude negotiations on a regulatory framework as a matter of urgency.
To learn more about how hash-matching and CSAM detection tools work, please join this upcoming webinar at 3PM CET on Friday, April 10th.
