Manage episode 478547765 series 5473
In the recent budget handed down by the Albanese government, there was little to no mention of social media, AI, or cybersecurity. What was behind this glaring omission? And what does that mean for Australia's tech future?
Also, what's going on with the super fund hacks and are they actually that big of a deal?
Plus, Meta has implemented new restrictions for teens, and what's going on with the TikTok ban now that Trump's tariffs are in effect?
GUESTS:
- Angela Lavoipierre, ABC national technology reporter
- Kate Weber, section editor for Digital Nation at IT News
