flag Singapore enacts new law to fight online harms like cyberbullying and revenge porn, creating a commission to hold platforms accountable.

flag On November 5, 2025, Singapore introduced the Online Safety (Relief and Accountability) Bill to combat online harms like cyberbullying and non-consensual image sharing. flag The legislation establishes a new Online Safety Commission and a statutory framework holding platforms accountable when notified of harm, without requiring constant monitoring. flag It aims to provide victims with timely relief while balancing enforcement with free expression. flag Lawmakers from multiple parties supported the bill’s goals but urged safeguards to ensure evidence-based actions, judicial oversight, and clear standards for compliance. flag The government plans to address five major online harms within six months of the OSC’s launch, with additional issues phased in over time.
