The Law Bytes Podcast, Episode 74: Heidi Tworek on the Challenges of Internet Platform Regulation

The Law Bytes podcast took a breather over the holidays and into early January, but there seemingly is no break for digital policy issues. Over the past few weeks, Internet platforms have found themselves squarely in the public eye as company after company – from Shopify to Twitter to Facebook de-platformed former US President Donald Trump in response to the events in Washington earlier this month. Dr. Heidi Tworek of the University of British Columbia is one of Canada’s most prolific thinkers on Internet platform policies. She joins the podcast for a conversation about the role and responsibilities of Internet platforms, proposals for payments in the news sector, and insights what governments should be doing about better communicating with the public about the COVID-19 global pandemic.

  6. HR departments know very well the fierce competition for the best talent going on today. As you develop attractive compensation packages and benefit packages, there is one culmination benefit employees are demanding – and that is flexibility. If you’re still sticking to a steady work schedule, you may be left behind soon; In fact, one study found that these are the best job benefits that employers expect to add in 2021, and many workers will not hesitate to move to another company that offers more attractive benefits.
    However, the good news is that it is possible to offer flexibility without throwing away timelines. This is what we strive to achieve at our university. If you like it
    Enjoy the experience and give us your suggestions. On the link: http://virtuelcampus.univ-msila.dz/inst-staps/
