Amnesty International says it's entirely possible for New Zealand to take on big tech. 

Several media companies, industry groups and other organisations have signed an Amnesty open letter, calling for a stronger crack down on digital platforms like TikTok and Facebook. 

They're calling for an independent regulator to manage risks like fraud, extremist content, and misinformation. 

Amnesty International NZ Movement Building & Advocacy Director Lisa Woods told Heather du Plessis-Allan we already hold other big companies to account. 

She says they want big tech platforms to face requirements such as a duty of care, to identify and reduce risks, and explain how their systems work.
