On 30th September 2022 a coroner in London finds that Molly Russell "...died from an act of self-harm while suffering from depression and the negative effects of online content." The finding is a global first. Social media is ruled to have contributed to the death of a child. In San Francisco, around the same time, a strange story is unfolding inside Twitter HQ. Ever since Donald Trump's account was suspended on Twitter, tensions have been building around what is and isn't allowed on platforms. Elon Musk shares internal staff documents with a hand-picked group of journalists. One of those journalists suspects these documents show collusion between tech platforms and the US government. Politicians and civil groups on both the left and right from across the world, want the power and influence of these companies to be reigned in. There's even talk of repealing section 230 - the law that created modern social media. In this final episode, Jamie Bartlett asks if Silicon Valley's radical experiment is about to implode? And if the online world is chaotic now, what will advances in artificial intelligence mean for us all?Presenter: Jamie Bartlett Producer: Caitlin Smith Sound design: Eloise Whitmore Story Consultant: Kirsty Williams Senior Producer: Peter McManus Composer: Jeremy Warmsley Commissioned by Dan Clarke A BBC Scotland ProductionReading by John Lightbody Archive credits: BBC News, September 2022; CNN, 2022; C-Span, Jan 2024; BBC Archive, 1967New episodes released on Mondays.

Today, we look at the success of a campaign by parents of children who may have died due to online harms to get more information from tech companies. Coroners will be able to demand data from firms when holding an inquest into the circumstances of a child's death. Campaigners have been pushing for new powers to get information from companies after the difficulties the coroner faced dealing with social media firms in the case of Molly Russell.Also Paddy and Laura are joined by Julian Smith, Conservative MP and former Northern Ireland secretary.

In 2017, while struggling with depression, 15-year-old Molly Russell took her life. During the dark struggle, she turned to social media for help. Before her suicide, she interacted with over 2,100 posts about suicide and self-harm on Facebook and Instagram. The words of the posts convinced her that instead of seeking help, she should take her life. Recently a British court held Meta, Facebook's parent group, liable for her death because of the words they chose not to censor. As we begin our series on taming the tongue, we learn what the Bible says about the power of words and the importance of using every word we speak to honor God in our life.

Ben and Tom have a special guest, Molly Russell join the call. GDP results show a large growth in personal consumption (the largest growth since Q2 of 2021), and there was also a large bump in government spending.

How do different factors, such as a guardian having a disability or being incarcerated, affect awarded child support? What should you do if you have a substantial financial change, such as losing a job? What are your options for modifying custody if one guardian is planning to move to another location either in state or out of state? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Today the government published the latest version of the Online Harms Bill. Companies could face huge fines if they don't ban under age children, but ministers have dropped plans for restrictions on content described as legal but harmful. Instead, because of concerns about freedom of speech, people can filter out that kind of content for themselves. Today's Martha Kearney spoke to Molly Russell's father, Ian Russell, and Culture Secretary Michelle Donelan about the changes. (IMAGE CREDIT: Dominic Lipinski/PA Wire)

En octubre, la justicia británica declaró a las redes sociales culpables de un suicidio. Fue el de Molly Russell, una adolescente británica que en 2017 acabó con su vida tras pasar sus últimos seis meses expuesta a contenido virtual sobre autolesiones y suicidio en varias plataformas. Cinco años después, un tribunal británico ha considerado que las redes sociales afectaron a su salud mental y “contribuyeron a su muerte”. Este dictamen histórico ha abierto un debate sobre la responsabilidad de las empresas tecnológicas, como Instagram o Pinterest, en la salud mental de los adolescentes.

The father of 14-year-old Molly Russell says his family is still "numb" about the inquest verdict into her death. It found social media content contributed "more than minimally" to Molly's death in 2017 from an act of self-harm while suffering depression. The coroner said images Molly saw of self-harm and suicide "shouldn't have been available for a child to see". Ian Russell spoke to Amol Rajan about the impact the inquest had on his family and his hopes for the future regulation of social media companies.

"Government control over the flow of information": Lord Sumption speaks out against the threat to freedom of speech posed by the Online Safety Bill. With the conclusion of the inquest into the death of the teenager Molly Russell, attention has turned again to the Online Safety Bill, currently making its way through the House of Commons. The Bill's concept of “legal but harmful” user-generated content is controversial, and has attracted criticism from high places, not least of all from former Supreme Court judge Jonathan Sumption. Lord Sumption joins Rosalind English in this episode to discuss the problems involved in defining this kind of harm and the concepts of “misinformation and disinformation” in the Bill.

We open today's episode by teasing the Supreme Court's decision to review whether section 230 protects big platforms from liability for materially assisting terror groups whose speech they distribute (or even recommend). I predict that this is the beginning of the end of the house of cards that aggressive lawyering and good press have built on the back of section 230. Why? Because Big Tech stayed out of the Supreme Court too long. Now, just when section 230 gets to the Court, everyone hates Silicon Valley and its entitled content moderators. Jane Bambauer, Gus Hurwitz, and Mark MacCarthy weigh in, despite the unfairness of having to comment on a cert grant that is two hours old. Just to remind us why everyone hates Big Tech's content practices, we do a quick review of the week's news in content suppression.  A couple of conservative provocateurs prepared a video consisting of Democrats being “election deniers.” The purpose was to show the hypocrisy of those who criticize the GOP for a meme that belonged mainly to Dems until two years ago. And it worked. YouTube did a manual review before it was even released and demonetized the video because, well, who knows? An outcry led to reinstatement, too late for YouTube's reputation. Jane has the story. YouTube also steps in the same mess by first suppressing then restoring a video by Giorgia Meloni, the biggest winner of Italy's recent election. She's on the right, but you already knew that from how YouTube dealt with her. Mark covers an even more troubling story, in which government officials point to online posts about election security that they don't like, NGOs that the government will soon be funding take those complaints to Silicon Valley, and the platforms take a lot of the posts down. Really, what could possibly go wrong? Jane asks why Facebook is “moderating” private messages by the wife of an FBI whistleblower. I suspect that this is related to the government and big tech's hyperaggressive joint pursuit of anything related to January 6. But it definitely requires investigation. Across the Atlantic, Jane notes, the Brits are hating Facebook for the content it let 14-year-old Molly Russell read before her suicide. Exactly what was wrong with the content is a little obscure, but we agree that the material served to minors is ripe for more regulation, especially outside the United States. For a change of pace, Mark has some largely unalloyed good news. The International Telecommunication Union will not be run by a Russian; instead it elected an American, Doreen Bodan-Martin to lead it.   Mark tells us that all the Sturm und Drang over tougher antitrust laws for Silicon Valley has wound down to a few modestly tougher provisions that have now passed the House. That may be all that can get passed this year, and perhaps in this Administration. Gus gives us a few highlights from FTCland: The FTC is likely to strengthen enforcement tools for its consent decrees, mainly by tagging individuals with potential fines for violations. Gus doubts this will work out well in practice. The FTC is also end-running a recent Supreme Court decision that denied it the authority to impose certain financial penalties. Now the Commission will bring cases jointly with state agencies who have that authority. Jane unpacks a California law prohibiting cooperation with subpoenas from other states without an assurance that the subpoenas aren't investigating abortions that would be legal in California. I again nominate California as playing the role in federalism for the twenty-first century that South Carolina played in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and predict that some enterprising red state attorney general is likely to enjoy litigating the validity of California's law – and likely winning. Gus notes that private antitrust cases remain hard to win, especially without evidence, as Amazon and major book publishers gain the dismissal of antitrust lawsuits over book pricing. Finally, in quick hits and updates: Gus previews an upcoming executive order to cool off the fight over data transfers across the Atlantic I cover two U.S. espionage arrests, one of which is best summarized by the Babylon Bee I also note a large privacy flap Down Under, as the exposure of lots of personal data from a telco database seems likely to cost the carrier, and its parent dearly. Russian botmasters have suddenly discovered that extradition to the U.S. may be better than going home and facing mobilization.

Alex Scott is one of the most high profile names in women's sport. The former Lioness started playing football for Arsenal when she was just eight years old, later, as a semi-professional player for the club she washed the men's team kit to earn extra money on the side. Alex went on to play for England 140 times and now presents on the BBC and Sky Sports. She has recently released her memoir entitled ‘How (Not) to Be Strong' and joins Emma in the studio. Last Friday after two weeks of the inquest into the death of Molly Russell in 2017 coroner Andrew Walker concluded Molly died from an act of self-harm while suffering depression and the negative effects of online content. He said the images of self-harm and suicide she viewed "shouldn't have been available for a child to see" and that social media content contributed "more than minimally" to her death. Her father, Ian has called for urgent changes to make children safer online. Emma Barnett speaks to Merry Varney, the family's lawyer. It's just five weeks until the midterm elections in the United States. Emma is joined by the Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen, the first woman in US history to be elected both as a Governor and as a Senator for New Hampshire, a small but decisive State. In 2012, having been lost for over 500 years, the remains of King Richard III were discovered beneath a car park in Leicester. The search had been orchestrated by an amateur historian, Philippa Langley, whose unrelenting research had been met with incomprehension by her friends and family and with scepticism by experts and academics.

Hey guys! As you will find out, anxiety is a very difficult to talk about. I myself was a bit flustered throughout the episode so I hope all is forgiven. Please join me as Molly shares her experience with anxiety and what her journey looked like while combating it!

I spoke with Kathleen Richardson of the Campaign Against Porn Bots about the increasing threat of deepfake pornography and the potential harms of the emerging VR pornography industry. Full video available here. An article I recently published, “App Fetishizing Forcible Transitioning of Kids Available on Google Play”, highlights a transgender pornography application that uses photographs of children. One of these children is a 14 year-old girl named Molly Russell, who committed suicide after viewing self-harm content on Instagram. As a result of my research, Kathleen Richardson contacted the family's solicitor and the photograph has since been removed from the app, though the app itself remains available on Google Play and contains photos of other children, as well.

Welcome to Difficult Conversations with Dr. Anthony Orsini. On today's episode I have the pleasure to have as my guest, Dr. Lisa Strohman, who is a Clinical Psychologist, author, public speaker, and the Founder  of The Digital Citizen Academy.  Dr. Strohman was a visiting scholar for the FBI working on homicidal pedophilia when the Columbine tragedy occurred, giving her an opportunity to be on the front lines of how technology impacts our youth. She has continued to work with law enforcement and the FBI on safety and cyber crimes involving adolescents, while also lending her knowledge and guidance to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. She established The Digital Citizen Academy to proactively prevent and develop curriculum for educators and parents on the issues resulting from technology use and misuse. Dr. Strohman is a frequent speaker on the topic of digital technology and its effects on adolescents and has appeared on TV shows and other media outlets. In addition, she has a new podcast called, The Point with Dr. Lisa Strohman.   Lisa takes us through her career, getting her Juris Doctor degree, Ph.D in psychology working with children and working for the FBI,  Dr. Orsini brings up the documentary-drama, The Social Dilemma, and Lisa explains how we get manipulated and addicted  by technology.  She explains how science is involved in how it affects your brain.  She explains how time spent on social media platforms produces changes in the  dopamine receptors of your brain that are very similar to people who are addicted to drugs. The numbers of suicides are escalating in children, especially with the internet and bullying, and Lisa shares with us just how bad they are.   We hear a story about a girl named Molly Russell, who sadly took her life at the young age of fourteen, and what influenced her to do this. . We hear advice from Lisa about teaching our kids that tech is a tool, and to know your value as a parent. Find out more about the Digital Citizen Academy as Lisa explains the incredible programs they offer for K-12, as well as the foundation they rely on to help sponsor programming in the schools .   We end with Lisa sharing with us the most difficult conversation she's ever had and how she navigated through it.  If you enjoyed this podcast, please hit follow, and download all the previous episodes. Host: Dr. Anthony OrsiniGuest:Dr. Lisa StrohmanSponsor:The Finley ProjectFor More Information:The Orsini WayThe Orsini Way-FacebookThe Orsini Way-LinkedinThe Orsini Way-InstagramThe Orsini Way-TwitterIt's All In The Delivery: Improving Healthcare Starting With A Single Conversation by Dr. Anthony OrsiniResources Mentioned:Dr. Lisa Strohman WebsiteDr. Lisa Strohman TwitterThe Digital Citizen AcademyDCA FoundationThe Point with Dr. Lisa Strohman (Podcast)Unplug: Raising Kids In a Technology Addicted World by Lisa Strohman and Melissa Westendorf

Facebook will create 1,000 new roles in London over the course of this year, including adding to its team tackling harmful online content. More than half of the new jobs will be technology-focused, with roles in software engineering, product design, and data science, the company said.It will take Facebook's UK workforce to more than 4,000.Facebook's chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg will announce the new jobs in London later on Tuesday, before traveling to the World Economic Forum in Davos."Many of these high-skilled jobs will help us address the challenges of an open internet and develop artificial intelligence to find and remove harmful content more quickly," she is expected to say.Those roles will be in Facebook's "community integrity" team, which designs tools to police posts on Facebook's platforms including Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp.Steve Hatch, the firm's vice-president for northern Europe, told BBC Radio 4's Today program that the firm had decided to invest more in policing online content, following the suicide of teenager Molly Russell in 2017.Facebook aimed to build on the progress it had made in tackling terrorist content to remove other problematic content such as self-harming, Mr. Hatch said.The firm had detected and removed two million posts from Facebook and 800,000 from Instagram, he added. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/newscast-africa/support Learn more about your ad choices.
