Hate speech and the internet

From Afternoons, 1:18 pm on 21 May 2018

Hate speech is hardly anything new...but what is new is the ability for it to spread like wildfire and remain relatively anonymous thanks to modern technology.

Tomorrow, Internet NZ is hosting a panel session on Hate and the Internet. It's part of this year's Speaker Series.

Massey University's Pro Vice-Chancellor Paul Spoonley is on that panel in Wellington and tells us more about the issue.
