Think what you post online doesn’t matter? Think again. Join Emma Sadleir, South Africa’s leading social media law expert, for a one-hour webinar based on her new book How Not to Mess Up Online: A Teenager’s Guide to Not Getting Sued, Arrested, Cancelled, or Addicted.

Aimed at teens aged 14 and up, this powerful session dives into the real-life consequences of what you post, share, and say online — from sexting and deepfakes to bullying, threats, and “jokes” that can land you in serious trouble. Emma uses real South African cases to explain what’s legal, what’s not, and how to protect yourself from online harm.


What You’ll learn:

-The laws that apply to you online (and from what age)

-Sexting and pornography offences

-Why sharing, forwarding, or tagging can make you legally responsible

-How to avoid scams, sextortion, and digital blackmail

-What the Billboard Test is — and how it can save your reputation

-How your online footprint affects your future studies, career, and opportunities


Funny, shocking, and full of real stories, this webinar is your wake-up call to use social media wisely and stay out of trouble online.
