The deadly consequences of social media | Four Corners

by

After 20 years of unfettered growth, a realisation is dawning about the true cost of social media.

And it’s the younger generations facing the brunt of the deadly consequences.

As Australia grapples with how to regulate social media, in the US, thousands of parents are taking up the fight to hold these hugely profitable tech giants accountable…through the courts.

In the last Four Corners episode of 2024, reporter Louise Milligan speaks to whistleblowers, one of the lawyers running the case, and a family devastated by the loss of their 18-year-old daughter.

As Meta introduces new protections for young people, insiders and families who’ve witnessed the most tragic consequences tell Four Corners enough is enough.

“Botting” is Now ILLEGAL on Social Media – (And That’s Great)

With a new FTC rule targeting the selling or buying of fake traffic, false reviews, celebrity endorsements and botted influence… a lot of YouTubers, twitch streamers and social media companies are finally at risk for their deceptive tactics.

It remains to be seen what level of enforcement this rule might receive, but the simple fact that the FTC has put something on the books to allow for harder prosecution of paid followers and fake traffic is, itself, a win.

Companies from Amazon, to Twitch, Rumble, Youtube and Facebook are all in the crosshairs as the social media house of cards is finally being looked at.
