DOJ spokesperson Assistant Secretary Mico Clavano
MANILA – The government is eyeing a number of fresh approaches to stop online sexual abuse and exploitation of children (OSEAC).
In a media briefing Tuesday on the occasion of Safer Internet Day 2024, the Department of Justice (DOJ) spokesperson said among the measures being studied is working with money services businesses (MSBs) to flag amounts used to transfer subscription and purchase online footage and still photos of abused minors.
The Department of Social Welfare and Development official said they are also working closely with social media platforms to tweak their systems via artificial platforms to curb access to potentially harmful sites and content.
The officials said social media platforms, including Meta and TikTok, are taking part in the ongoing discussions to stamp out such contents.
The spokesperson mentioned that the adjustments are needed as the threshold amounts in the Anti-Money Laundering Act are substantially higher
