A Bill that empowers the Government to remove criminal online content was passed in Parliament on Wednesday. The Online Criminal Harms Act will allow the Government to tell individuals, entities, online and Internet service providers, and app stores, to remove or block...
The Ministry of Home Affairs said previously that these include a stop communication direction that requires the individual or entity that first posted the criminal content online to remove the post, so it is not accessible here.
Mrs Teo said once there is suspicion that any online activity is being carried out in preparation for or as part of the commission of a scam or malicious cyber activity offence, law enforcement could issue directions even before an offence is committed.Workers’ Party MP Gerald Giam asked about the reasons for its introduction, given existing legislation.
She also said the levers to deal with scams and malicious cyber activities are quite different, and the two pieces of legislation will complement each other. Leader of the Opposition and WP chief Pritam Singh said the WP supported the Bill as it was necessary to protect Singaporeans from scams and other online crimes.
Mr Louis Ng and Mr Yip Hon Weng asked how the Bill would be applicable to websites and online services based overseas. This could be done through prosecution, or issuing orders to restrict access to the non-compliant online service to prevent the criminal activity from being accessed here.
