Part two of this Tech Shock special discusses the possibility – and possible impact – of a smartphone ban for under-16s. 

Having previously heard from parents, this week Vicki is joined by Anna Lindsay from youth-content platform VoiceBox to get a measure of what young people themselves think about the issue. 

Talking points:

• Can you build resilience in an ecosystem of bans and prohibitions?
• Are we consulting young people enough on legislation that impacts them? Could – or should – this process be more collaborative? 
• What do young people feel they would lose if using smartphones were no longer an option?
