Topic: Digital Harassment

Experts suggest that schools need to update student handbooks to specifically address the risks of AI-generated harassment. Parents are encouraged to have open conversations with teens to reinforce that creating or spreading deepfake images carries real-world consequences and is not a joke.

Common Sense Media, a 501(c)(4) organization with Chelsea Clinton on its board, is promoting the concept of "digital harassment" among teens. The hosts examine the organization's high executive salaries and its role as a promotional arm for the movie industry, specifically targeting children with reviews and contests for films like "The Hunger Games."

Arizona House Bill 2549 seeks to amend stalking and harassment laws to include any "electronic or digital device." The legislation criminalizes using profane language with the intent to "annoy or offend," which the hosts argue could make most internet commentary illegal in the state. The bill classifies certain digital stalking as a Class 1 misdemeanor or a felony.
