On Monday I was interviewed by Orla Barry for a segment on international public radio news show The World. We discussed the likelihood of sanctions being applied by the UK government to social media platforms who amplified misinformation during the ongoing civil unrest.
Many thanks to Orla for the invitation. The segment can be listened to here.
Last night I appeared on BBC Scotland’s The Nine to discuss the role of social media in the ongoing UK riots. I discussed the difficulty of removing hate speech and misinformation from platforms that are not considered publishers.
Many thanks to Charlotte Morris, Ben Russell and the team on The Nine for arranging the interview.
The interview can be viewed here (it begins at 24:30).
