President Joe Biden signed the REPORT Act into law, a significant legislative measure aimed at combating child sexual exploitation. The law imposes strict penalties on companies that fail to report child sexual abuse material (CSAM) to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children's (NCMEC) CyberTipline. Key supporters of this bipartisan initiative include Senators Marsha Blackburn and Jon Ossoff, and Representatives Laurel Lee and Madeleine Dean. In alignment with this new law, the company X has reported approximately 175,000 CSAM incidents to NCMEC and suspended 1.5 million accounts related to child sexual exploitation in the first quarter of 2024.
