Should government step in to protect us from Big Social Media? Conspiracy theories and false news are spread by social media, with real and dangerous consequences for society. Is it time for governments to consider dealing with algorithm bubbles?  At Antidote 2022, journalist Karen Middleton was joined by former PM Malcolm Turnbull AC and Ed Coper, author of Facts and Other Lies, to discuss how false information affects governments delivering services and ask whether social media networks are out of control and posing a threat to democracy. This event was recorded live at the Sydney Opera House in September 2022. - Watch talks from Antidote 2022 on Stream, the streaming platform from the Sydney Opera House.
