Fevzi Turkalp, the Gadget Detective, joins Lunchtime Live on BBC Radio Scotland to discuss the UK Government's update to the Online Safety Bill banning under 16s from Social Media and regulating chatbots which are capable of generating adult material. While other countries, such as Australia, already have similar legislation, will the crackdown here in the UK work and how can it be enforced while still respecting the privacy and online freedoms of over 16s? Plus a look at Jools Law, aiming to ensure the retention of a child's online data following their death. Is the UK government rushing into action without thorough consultation on the real issues involved?
