Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are calling for social media platforms to adopt better content-moderation policies and other fixes.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on Tuesday called for social media platforms to adopt better content-moderation policies and other fixes, saying modifications need to be made to addictive apps that can harm young people's mental health.
Harry and Meghan’s comments came after hearing from panels featuring a handful of parents who lost children due to mental health challenges tied to social media use. The parents spoke about their loss and how a community that the foundation has created to talk about these issues is helping them find support.
At the event, Kate gave a speech to young people gathered in the city of Birmingham for a day of workshops and discussions around the issue to mark World Mental Health Day, and told them their goal is to “shape fairer, safer, kinder, more equal societies.” William joined a public discussion after Kate’s speech and told the young audience that talking about mental health helps chip away at the stigma related to the issue, “but there’s a lot more to do.
“We’ve taken too long to act” on social media, said Murthy, who earlier this year called for tech companies and lawmakers to take immediate action to protect kids and teens’ mental health.
