Episode Details

The government’s new digital duty of care plan aims to give users more control over social media algorithms, especially for kids—shielding them from harmful content like eating disorder promotion or glorified crime. But adults? Only illegal content is off-limits, sparking debate about whether 18+ really escapes the reach of damaging material. Enforcement is another hurdle: without invasive age verification, how do you tell kids from adults? And who gets to define “serious harm” for youth? Critics warn it may confuse more than clarify, but supporters see it as progress. Expect major reviews ahead as this complex policy evolves.
