Manage episode 286956947 series 2782881
In recent years we’ve seen social media platforms abused to execute campaigns of genocide, lynchings and an attempted insurrection in Washington D.C. Whilst people enjoy the right of free speech, incitement to commit an illegal act is an offence. But is the law adequately defined for the digital age? Damian Collins MP is joined by Professor Richard Wilson from the University of Connecticut School of Law, the author of 11 books on international human rights. Dr Charles Kriel updates on the latest with right wing social media platform, Parler.
