With over 50 million active daily users, Reddit is consistently one of the top 20 most visited websites in the world – it\u2019s not surprising that it calls itself \u2018the front page of the internet\u2019. But what makes this site so popular, and what should adults be aware of if children ask about it?<\/p>\n

Reddit\u2019s millions of \u201csubreddits\u201d cover every conceivable topic, and allow people to join communities that share their hobbies and passions. The site\u2019s policies are aimed at users aged 13 or older, but there is no age verification in place, and there have been concerns about younger children being able to see inappropriate content.\u00a0

We kick off series 3 of our podcast this week with an episode that\u2019s all about disinformation.<\/p>\n

Vicki Shotbolt, CEO and founder of Parent Zone, and Geraldine Bedell, executive editor, talk to disinformation expert Dr Charles Kriel about the misuse of vulnerable people\u2019s personal data. We find out how people with legitimate concerns can fall prey to conspiracy theories, and what can be done to help existing and potential victims escape the disinformation trap.<\/p>\n

\u201cDigital literacy is a terrific solution, but it\u2019s a 20 year solution, it\u2019s not a solution for right now. And the trouble with 20 year solutions in the digital space is – 20 years from now we\u2019ll be dealing with something else entirely\u2026 so we have to teach people how to understand the environment around them.\u201d\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
