AI and loopholes: Confronting child sexual abuse in Europe

Published on: 24th July, 2025

Child sexual abuse is rising, and technology is making it worse. In this episode of EU Decoded, we explore how the European Parliament is responding: from criminalising AI-generated abuse material to abolishing statutes of limitation, strengthening victim support systems, and pushing platforms to do more. Featuring MEPs Jeroen Lenaers and Francois Bellamy, Julie Fuchs from ECPAT International, and Hannah Swirsky from Internet Watch Foundation.
