The Supreme Court's Internet Cases
Feb 1000:53:39Tap to summarizeIn the last few years, the Supreme Court has been paying a lot more attention to the internet than it ever has before, and the cases keep on coming.

Jun 25, 2024Summary readyWe weren't planning to do a series, but after our last two episodes with Alice Marwick and then Candice Odgers, things have lined up nicely for a trifecta of episodes about the current moral panic around kids and social media. This week, we're joined by Dr. Devorah Heitner, an expert on kids and technology and author of the recent book Growing Up In Public, as well as a Substack about mentoring kids in a connected world, to discuss what parents really need to know about kids, social media, and the internet.

This week, she joins us for something of a follow-up to our previous episode, to have a more productive discussion about the real challenges with kids and social media and the real efforts to address them.
