Cheaper petrol is weeks away + Inside the fight to end Big Tech addiction

Tuesday Headlines:

  • Cheaper fuel could take weeks to flow despite excise cut
  • Albanese calls on Donald Trump to be clearer about his war plans
  • Vaping likely causes cancer
  • Five social media platforms are being investigated for potentially failing to comply with the social media ban
  • Latest additions to the National Film and Sound Archive revealed

Deep Dive: A landmark US court ruling has found Meta and Google legally responsible for the way their platforms are designed, declaring Instagram and YouTube addictive by design.

The decision is being framed as big tech’s “big tobacco moment,” raising the prospect of global lawsuits while intensifying pressure on governments, including in Australia, to regulate algorithms before more harm is done.

In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou speaks with Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young about her party’s proposed ‘Fix Our Feeds’ bill, how it would give users control over algorithms, and whether Australia is ready or even capable to take on the power of big tech.
