Social Media Ban for Under 16's
The UK governemnt are considering copying Australia's ban of social media for under 16's. However, not all experts agree on this.
Not everyone agrees that a full ban is the best solution. Some digital health researchers argue that evidence on age-based bans is still limited.
Experts suggest that a balanced approach may work better, combining:
Stronger moderation of harmful content.
Safer algorithms for younger users.
Better digital literacy for children and parents.

I'm not convinced. Surely its taking away responsibility from platforms; social media companies need to moderate better to keep all of us safe! This link to the Register has valid points about this: https://www.theregister.com/2026/01/21/uk_social_media_ban/

Hi, Yes. She has been compiling art, which she does digitally over the extended period of time over Xmas & New Year. I'm hoping she will attend some of our sessions in the near future.
