I was a guest on Terry Flew’s Time for Trust podcast series. A link to the episode is available here.

We talked about recent moves by the UK government following Australia’s lead by banning social media for under-16s. In a parting move made by the Starmer government, it’s left public opinion divided. We all want children to be safe online. But is this global movement a necessary stand against Big Tech, or does it ignore how the modern world works?  

We tried to unpack some of these issues, and why this legislation could open the door to more regulations around algorithms and addictive app design.
