Description
Antigone Davis is the head of global safety at META, the company that owns Instagram and Facebook. Here we discuss new tools the company has just released to give teens with mental health challenges a more positive experience using the product. We discuss how the tools work, what problems they’re meant to remedy and what else the company can or should do to ensure their products are safe for children. News Not Noise delivers its news on Instagram, and its newsletter through the Bulletin writers program, which is also part of META. We know first hand the benefits of these platforms and their downsides as well; we have and will continue to report on these serious issues. Please take the time to listen to this conversation to learn more about how the tools are meant to work, the known and unknown harms to children and what can be done about them.
