Show Notes

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer pledges to tackle big tech, promising stricter guidelines on social media features designed to keep kids engaged. New official advice urges parents to limit screen time for young children, with a cap of one hour a day for two to five-year-olds. Experts warn of developmental delays linked to excessive screen time, and the government is considering stronger protections, such as time limits or bans on social media for under-sixteens. This marks a significant shift in norms around tech and young lives, with more specific advice on quality content forthcoming.
