22nd February 2026 - Talking Tech News & Reviews on LBC

Author: Gadget Detective - Fevzi Turkalp February 25, 2026 Duration: 16:04

Fevzi Turkalp, the Gadget Detective, joins Clive Bull on LBC to discuss the many legal cases being brought against social media platforms in the US alleging harm was done to litigants, who claim the way videos and similar content is pushed leads to addiction and other negative effects. With potentially thousands of cases hinging on how these cases go, what may the future hold for the companies involved? Meanwhile, under new legislation in the UK companies will have 48 hours to remove any offensive or illegal images posted on their platforms, but could this new law have unintended consequences? Plus a look at how you can get a broadband connection at home via a cell service using a router which features a sim card.

Gadget of the Week goes to;

TP-Link Archer MR600 Router. This innovative dual band router features everything you'd expect from a modern router, including AC1200Mbps Wifi network speeds, but also adds the ability to insert a sim card and use your cellular/mobile data connection as your home or office internet. An ideal solution for those in areas with no access to high speed internet or who are simply waiting for the roll out of full fibre. 

TP-Link Deco BE65 Tri-Band Whole Mesh WiFi 7 networking system. With three AI-driven hubs this kit allows you to spread your internet throughout your property and avoid issues with weak signals. With both wired connections up to 2.5Gbps, and wireless up to 2882Mbps this is an ideal upgrade to your home network

Devolo Magic 2 Wifi 6 Next Multiroom Kit. These adapters use your home electrical circuit to give you superfast networking throughout your home, up to 3000Mbps via Wifi or via 2 Gigabit ethernet ports on each adapter. Another ideal way to upgrade your home network.
