The clocks changing to summer time is unlikely to herald cheaper energy bills for consumers – but it does raise pressing questions about the relationship between time, energy and sustainability, according to a researcher at Queen’s University Belfast.

Discussions have been ongoing for years on whether to abolish the clock change and stick to GMT all year round (Irish Winter Time in the Republic). Some critics have argued that money could be saved on energy consumption while others believe the change disrupts circadian rhythms.

Against rising adult concern about child sexual abuse content and children’s mental health, recent calls to follow Australia and ban under-16s from accessing social media in the UK are understandable. It reflects genuine parental anxiety about online harms.

These harms are not abstract. Research shows that young people are exposed to violent misogynistic cultures and toxic manospheres online.

But despite being consistently critical of the viral and experiential platform business models driving much of today’s social media harm, as an expert in digital communication, I do not support the ban. This is not because I defend the kind of libertarian politics adopted by Silicon Valley.

It isn’t because I consider social media harmless either. The situation is more nuanced. I oppose the ban because it is based on questionable assumptions about under-16s’ vulnerability to social media and overlooks the broader harms platform business models present to all users.
