Amendments to the Online Safety Act are incoming, as government begins consultation on proposed reforms to the Basic Online Safety Expectations which include new measures related to child safety, generative AI, recommender systems, and transparency, among other themes.
The Basic Online Safety Expectations (BOSE) set benchmarks for the online safety outcomes of social media, online messaging services, and other internet services like personal cloud storage services.
The expectations are agnostic regarding how particular safety outcomes must be met, meaning companies are free to determine their own regulation or technology-based processes. However, the BOSE Determination does include examples of what it says are reasonable steps service providers can take.
