Rick Lane was there at the beginning; when MySpace was the leader of the pack and Facebook was moving fast and breaking things. He had a front row seat to it all going wrong and is speaking out. In this eye-opening conversation, Rick describes how the initial intention of self-regulation and light government touch in the tech industry has led to the lack of accountability and failure in protecting children online. Rick Lane is a tech policy expert, child safety advocate, and the founder and CEO of IGGY Ventures LLC. IGGY advises and invests in companies, projects, and public policy initiatives that can positively impact society. Connect with Rick on LinkedIn. Pass KOSA! To give our children the protections they deserve, we need the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA). KOSA passed in the Senate 91-3 and needs passage in the House. Please contact your Rep to ask them to co-sponsor KOSA. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/scrolling2death/support
