Show Notes
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson are advocating for a ban on addictive features on social media platforms, citing their negative impact on children. This call comes after new guidance on screen time for kids under five and a US court case where Meta and Google were held liable for a womans social media addiction. The UK is currently running a consultation and pilot program to test bans, curfews, and app limits, with Starmer emphasizing the need for action to protect the next generation from tech addiction.
