Summary
Fevzi Turkalp, the Gadget Detective, joins Allison Ferns on BBC Radio Surrey & Sussex to discuss the announcement by the UK government of a ban on social media for under 16s. How will this be implemented, and how effective can it be? As part of this legislation there's also talk of banning VPNs, which are an essential security measure for many people. Is this over reach and using a sledgehammer to crack a walnut?
