On Thursday's Backchat, we're talking about social media use among young people.
Starting this week, Instagram profiles of users under-16 will require adult oversight as part of Meta's "Teen Accounts" initiative, which was just expanded to the Asia Pacific region.
Under the new terms, accounts held by teenagers will be made private by default and users will be less likely to see violent content on their feed. Parents will also be given more control over their kids' online activity.
The move comes as social media platforms face growing pressure to make their apps safer for minors, with Australia being the first country in the world to pass a law banning under-16s from social media.
Is Meta's initiative striking the right balance? We'll ask the experts.
After 9:45, we'll learn more about E. coli and how the virus is transmitted, after a doctor died of a suspected infection last week.
