4.7 - META's Take On Hate Speech

from This Week In Cyberspace Hosted by Nell Schofield and Brett Solomon

This Week In Cyberspace we take a look at hate speech online in the context of conflict. With the UN calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, and the horrific human toll of Palestinian civilian lives still rising, certain words are coming under intense scrutiny. META is reviewing the use of the word 'Zionist' on its platforms, while the Arabic term 'Saheed' - the word for martyr - is responsible for the most content takedowns across all of its platforms. But what are the implications for free speech and rational debate online?
