Maybe with the UK online safety bill due in the Autumn (Fall), they are finally realising that they are going to be held criminally accountable for harmful content, so are panicking and doing what they should have been doing all along. Oh and ironically if they had done so all along there would be less of a need for an online safety bill, which is going to have wider consequences, so once again, THANK YOU BIG TECH.
