Many tech companies want to and are acting responsibly, but where they do not, we must and we will act. Innovation should serve humanity, not degrade it.

So we’ll leave no stone unturned in our determination to stamp out these demeaning, degrading and illegal images.

If that means strengthening the existing laws, we are prepared to do so because this government stands on the side of decency.

> our determination to stamp out these demeaning, degrading and illegal images.

Having made these images illegal, the UK Govt. will now make them more illegal. Hmm.
