Dr. Pamela Wisniewski joined researchers, advocates, and policymakers at Public Knowledge for a discussion on building a safer and healthier internet for children and teens.
The event centered on Public Knowledge’s report, The Kids Aren’t Alright Online: How To Build a Safer, Better Internet for Everyone, which calls for policymaking that makes the internet safer and more privacy-protective for children and the broader public. (Public Knowledge)
Wisniewski contributed to discussions on safer online platforms, Safety by Design, and platform accountability, emphasizing approaches that protect young people while supporting their agency and digital rights. The broader conversation addressed privacy-first protections, risk-based regulation, youth empowerment, transparency, and evidence-based approaches as alternatives to blanket restrictions.
