Designing Counter Strategies against Online Harms
- đ¤ Speaker: Stefanie Ullmann, University of Cambridge
- đ Date & Time: Tuesday 11 February 2025, 14:00 - 15:00
- đ Venue: Webinar & FW11, Computer Laboratory, William Gates Building.
Abstract
Common mitigation strategies to combat harmful speech online, such as reporting and blocking, are often insufficient as they are reactive, involve unethical human labour and impose censorship. This explores alternative counter strategies such as a quarantining tool and automated counterspeech generator. Quarantining online hate speech and disinformation like a computer virus gives power to the individual user, while a counterspeech generator is specifically designed to produce diverse counter responses to different forms of online harm. Both strategies can protect users from harm and significantly ease the burden of human counterspeakers. The talk will explore the benefits as well as current shortcomings of these strategies and discuss necessary further developments.
