Vicki and Geraldine talk to Robert Wigley, author of Born Digital, The Story of a Distracted Generation, about what he sees as the damaging effects of tech on young people.

Talking points:

• Is tech really eroding empathy among the young?

• If young people are so damaged by tech, how come most of them demand their work has purpose?

• How big a problem is it that online harms legislation doesn’t include financial harms?

• Is it actually helpful to view digital harms through a generational lens?
