ABOUT THIS EPISODE
As governments around the world move to restrict young people’s access to social media, a fundamental question emerges: do bans actually protect children or create new risks?
Growing concern about youth mental health and the power of tech companies has driven policies such as Australia’s under-16 ban, which is now being closely watched around the world.
But the evidence remains contested. Sonia Livingstone, Director of Digital Futures for Children, argues there are limits to the ban approach. She suggests we rethink how digital environments are designed and governed so they are safer for young people.
