Episode notes

Today new measures as part of the Online Safety Act mean people will need to verify that they are over 18 to access harmful and toxic content online - with the intention of restricting children from accessing material such as pornography, and content referencing self-harm, suicide, hate speech and violence. Cyber security expert Chelsea Jarvie explores whether these ‘age gate’ measures go far enough. 


And in part two, The Standard’s Head of Culture, Martin Robinson, joins us ahead of tonight’s Oasis gig, as the band return to the capital’s Wembley Stadium for the first time since 2009.
