Author: Global News / Curiouscast December 2, 2024 Duration: 13:27
Australia is banning the use of social media for young people under the age of 16. That's the law. There is instant nodding in agreement, as well as instant shaking of the head in fundamental disagreement. Which side are you on? - Who should be deciding whether kids and and what age should be using social media? Kids themselves? Parents? Companies providing apps? Government? - France passed legislation declaring any child under 15 must obtain permission from a parent or guardian to engage on social media. France is attempting to persuade all E.U. Nations to follow its lead.  Guest: David Fraser. One of Canada's foremost privacy lawyers, international internet law expert, and founder of the Canadian Privacy Law Blog.
