Is a social media ban for under-16s proportionate?
In this week’s Computer Weekly ezine, we dig into the Council of Europe’s Commissioner for Human Rights’ arguments that governments should be doing more to police the actions of “big tech social media firms” rather than banning under-16s from using their platforms.
