Whether it's social media, virtual reality, or the emerging metaverse, connected technologies bring us enormous advantages, along with some challenges. Larry will discuss how ConnectSafely helps users get the most from their technology while managing the risks and helps decision-makers craft sensible policies that encourage both innovation and responsible use.
