ICMEC's Colm Gannon on Getting Regulations Aligned with the Fight Against Child Exploitation

This week, ID Talk welcomes Colm Gannon, CEO of ICMEC Australia, for a discussion about the intersection of technology, privacy, and child protection. Gannon discusses how ICMEC collaborates with law enforcement, regulators, and tech companies to combat child exploitation, the challenges of balancing privacy rights with victim protection, and the role of technologies like facial recognition and AI in investigations.

The conversation covers regulatory developments, including the EU’s AI Act, and explores how law enforcement can adopt innovative tools responsibly while ensuring proper oversight and governance.
