What does a more ethical social media future look like? As we saw in the popular Netflix docu-drama The Social Dilemma, there is a problem with social media and how it impacts us on an individual and societal level.

Join us for a timely discussion with three leading experts that are focused on improving the current state of social media and ensuring that it is aligned with the public interest.
