Big tech is facing a big moment. With plummeting stock prices, and mass lay-offs, the likes of Google, Twitter and Meta are all - for different reasons - facing some tough questions over how they're being run.

And what can they do about it? Presenter / Producer: Ed Butler Image: Phones; Credit: Getty
