Wired for Trouble: Kara Swisher on Big Tech

About this episode

Today, we explore the perils of social media on kids and the way families are fighting back against big tech. First, how the experience of Candace Wuest and her daughter CeCe show the consequences of social media on kids. Then, journalist Kara Swisher takes us through the long view on big tech companies, and finally, Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut talks us through his potential solution: the Kids Online Safety Act.  This is a companion podcast to the CNN Original “Wired for Trouble,” debuting in June on The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper. Past episodes of The Whole Story are available to stream now on Max.  Kara Swisher is the host of two podcasts: On with Kara Swisher and Pivot.  To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.
