   The Online Safety Bill is due to make a come-back – Commons Leader   
   Penny Mordaunt has confirmed that it is provisionally due to be   
   debated on 5 December 2022. The Bill was introduced during the era of   
   Boris Johnson, then delayed due to the Tory leadership race, survived   
   Liz "Tornado" Truss, and has been trimmed and tweaked quite   
   considerably by Rishi Sunak's government.   
      
   The return of the Bill comes as more concerns have been raised about   
   Ofcom's powers under the draft Bill. In the current draft, Ofcom will   
   have authority to require tech companies to deal with terrorism and   
   child abuse content on private messaging apps such as WhatsApp,   
   Facebook Messenger, Telegram and Signal.
