Speaker:
Hi. This is Bill Sikkens, host of User
Friendly 2.0
2
:
Saturdays here on The Answer
with this week's Tech Wednesday.
3
:
Social media
has been around for a long time,
4
:
and it is something that
most of our children use.
5
:
A lot of us too.
6
:
there are some very positive uses
of social media.
7
:
Sharing pictures,
8
:
remembering a fun party,
talking to people that might be far away.
9
:
there is also a dark side
of these platforms
10
:
that allow bad guys, stalkers,
and those that would do our children harm.
11
:
Access.
12
:
And parents are increasingly worried
about this, and rightfully so.
13
:
But parents are not alone in this fight.
14
:
Joining this week,
Jen Hanley, head of North American safety
15
:
from meta, is going to be talking
about some of the precautions and tools
16
:
that meta is putting together
to help with this problem
17
:
on both Instagram and Facebook.
18
:
There are methods going in
that we'll be able to better verify
19
:
the age of children.
20
:
Watch out for the bad guys and help out
with making this whole situation
21
:
just a little bit safer.
22
:
So join us
this Saturday here on User Friendly 2.0.
