In Episode 21 of Digitally Speaking, we explore the UK Government’s proposed social media ban for under-16s, looking at what it could mean for young people, parents, businesses, and the wider digital world. Perfect for anyone trying to make sense of the debate, we cut through the headlines to explain the thinking behind the policy, the practical challenges around age verification, and the concerns around VPNs, teen creators, and online communities. We also take a balanced look at the bigger question: how do we protect young people online, without cutting them off from the creativity, connection, and opportunities that digital platforms can offer?
