This morning the head of Ofcom was asked questions as the next stage to protect children from harm starts on the 25th of this month:

The main content pertaining to the Act is at the beginning.

Yes, in the same way that TV channels are expected to comply with the broadcasting code, Ofcom will only generally become involved if there are breaches of the law relating to the Online Safety Act.

Brexit may have happened but it still hasn’t been implemented. We are still stuck with EU rules and we have not done enough to encourage business. While Covid and the Ukraine war were major disrupters to progress, it’s not acceptable that the new trade deals are only just coming through now.

The Conservatives should have done better, and it is revealing that it’s taken a Labour government to start pushing these through. Our biggest money making sector for the UK is services, and this needs to be included in every trade deal we do.

It’s no good blaming Brexit for all our woes. Implementation should have been fast tracked to enable us to reap the benefits. Starmer’s attempts to cosy up to the French will soon show everyone how misguided this fellow is.

Re: Online Safety Bill Etc

User to user websites & sites where pornography is uploaded are now making preparations in order to ensure that they do not fall foul of the forthcoming age verification requirement.

These include verifying users themselves or outsourcing the function, blocking the UK from their service, closing down etc.

Although this is not endorsed by Ofcom (the regulator for these sites), this site does contain some useful information for those affected by this change:
