Let’s call it what it is: antisocial media | Brief letters

Tech platforms | Concerned AI | David Sullivan | Contacting MPs | Mogging

On “hearing” my exclamation of “Oh no!” while watching nestlings being devoured by a predator on the TV show Springwatch, a convincingly concerned voice from my phone asked: “Are you alright? Can I help?”
