Article 3 – paragraph 1 – point a

Text proposed by the Commission

Amendment

Article -1

In Article 3(1) of Regulation (EU) 2021/1232, point (a) is replaced by the following:

(a) the processing is:

(i) strictly necessary for the use of specific technology for the sole purpose of detecting and removing known online child sexual abuse material and reporting it to law enforcement authorities and to organisations acting in the public interest against child sexual abuse;

(ii) proportionate and limited to technologies used by providers for the purpose set out in point (i);

(iii) limited to content data that are strictly necessary for the purpose set out in point (i);

(iv) limited to what is strictly necessary for the purpose set out in point (i);

Limiting to known material, because the error rates (false positives) for detecting previously unknown material are too high, and no communications provider is attempting grooming detection anyway.
