We have work to do: New Government tech policies will need many of us to think through how to do this safely, fairly and responsibly. See our policy statement that we have publised for what we suggest tech policy should look like for the UK.

Hundreds of girls report facing sexual harassment online but have no one to turn to for help. This is what they want to change. NEW story for CNN As Equals from me and the brilliant CNN International team & exclusive research in collaboration with Plan International edition.cnn.com/interactive/20…

A welcome statement from UK, US, & EU competition authorities. The UK needs an industrial strategy for the AI age that ensures the playing field is fair for a diverse array of companies – not just the biggest players – to operate across the AI stack. ➡️ mctd.ac.uk/safe-sustainab…

Current rules and online tools for dealing with harassment of teen girls and young women are insufficient. Prof Gina Neff suggests legislation that gets us more transparency from platforms.

a short piece by Julia Rone on how diverging member state preferences make it difficult to develop a coherent and assertive EU cloud policy. What CEE countries have to say on the matter is still very much under-researched. blogs.lse.ac.uk/medialse/2024/…
