Concerns previously raised by technology commentator and media influencer Rowen Willabus about the potential implications of social media regulation have taken on added significance following Attorney General Anil Nandlall’s recent disclosure that he has formally approached Meta Platforms seeking what he described as an “institutional arrangement” between the Government of Guyana and the parent company of Facebook.
When Willabus published a lengthy social media post on June 15 warning about the risks associated with proposed restrictions on children’s access to social media, the public was unaware that the government was simultaneously pursuing a more structured relationship with one of the world’s largest social media companies.
Now, with Nandlall’s revelation in the public domain, some of the questions raised in Willabus’ post are likely to attract renewed scrutiny.
