  • Summary

  • On this episode of Say Again, Amrita Tripathi speaks with Vaishnavi J, founder of VYS, about the critical issues surrounding trust and safety in the tech industry, particularly focusing on child safety and the evolving regulatory landscape.

    Vaishnavi has a storied track record working across trust and safety in Google, Twitter, Meta and now with her own firm. They discuss the importance of responsible design in technology, the challenges parents face in monitoring their children's online activities, and the need for a balanced approach to digital literacy.

    Vaishnavi shares insights from her career journey in big tech, her leadership style, and the significance of community support in entrepreneurship.


    Some key takeaways:

    - The internet was not designed with children in mind.

    - Bans on social media are not effective solutions.

    - Trust and safety efforts often swing like a pendulum.

    - Entrepreneurship can feel like a radical journey of self-discovery
