The Kids Behind KOSA
Episode 7
Thursday, 16 January, 2025

This is the story of one young person's battle to transform tech policy for teens. Because while young people struggle with mental health on social media, big tech companies are profiting off their screen time. In this episode, meet Zamaan Qureshi, who got involved in tech policy as a teenager himself. Host Anjali Nambiar shares Zamaan's journey from advocacy on the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) to a face-to-face confrontation with Mark Zuckerberg.
