Prince William tells tech leaders: do more to counter cyberbullying

Duke of Cambridge accuses social media firms of being on the back foot over challenges

The Duke of Cambridge has called on the world's leading social media companies to "reject the false choice of profits over values" and do more to counter cyberbullying and other problems they are creating.

Prince William expressed concern "that on every challenge they face - fake news, extremism, polarisation, hate speech, trolling, mental health, privacy and bullying - our tech leaders seem to be on the back foot".
