ABC’s Your Say to unpack changes to social media laws in live national forum – How Australians access social media is about to change thanks to tougher new laws designed to protect under 16s. But not everyone agrees with the changes, which is why the ABC wants you to have Your Say in this Digital Dilemma.
On Tuesday 14 October, ABC Local Radio and ABC News will break-down different aspects of the changes across the day, culminating in a live national forum at 8.05pm AEDT across ABC Local Radio and the ABC News Channel.
The extensive coverage will give all Australians the chance to join a national conversation about how the laws will work, whether they’ll keep kids safer online and the implications for all social media users.
Led by ABC Melbourne Mornings Presenter Rafael Epstein and ABC’s National Technology Reporter Ange Lavoipierre, the forum will feature a panel of experts who will answer important questions including how the laws will work, what’s technically possible and how social media sites will be regulated.
ABC’s national Your Say initiative empowers Australians to actively participate in the national conversation, providing a platform where everyone can have their voice heard, raise the questions that matter most to them and share their views on the issues that shape our country.
To submit questions and share your view on the changes to social media laws – head to abc.net.au/yoursay.
Catch all the coverage and updates via ABC listen, ABC Radio, the ABC NEWS website and app, ABC iview and the ABC NEWS channel.
