Google to Report Child Abuse Content Directly to Indian Authorities

Google, owned by Alphabet Inc., is set to begin reporting child sexual abuse material (CSAM) directly to Indian authorities as part of a crackdown. Previously, both Google and Meta reported such content to the U.S.-based National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC). NCMEC would then relay these reports to law enforcement in the relevant countries, including India. The shift signals a move toward more direct and faster reporting mechanisms with local authorities. This change is expected to strengthen India's ability to act swiftly on child abuse content online.
