Kate Winslet in the recent British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA) spoke out to the people in power by asking them to “criminalise” and “eradicate” “harmful content.”

During her acceptance speech for best leading actress in her recent film ‘I am Ruth,’ Winslet spoke about how the film is meant for families and parents who are unable to communicate with their teenage children due to the impact of social media addiction.
