DESCRIPTION:Disrupting online crime and harms often feels like playing a n
 ever-ending game of whack-a-mole. Shut down one malicious website\, and an
 other pops up\; arrest one cybercriminal\, and a few more may emerge in th
 e shadows. This talk discusses in detail what has recently happened as law
  enforcement and tech firms have taken concerted actions to disrupt online
  crime and harms\, with two special case studies: the coordinated global t
 akedowns of DDoS-for-hire services and the industry-wide effort to dismant
 le Kiwi Farms\, the largest forum facilitating online hate and harassment.
 \n\nBio: Anh is a final-year PhD candidate at the University of Cambridge.
  His research offers timely empirical measurements to explore cyberspace a
 nd its societal impact at scale\, with a focus on underground subcultures 
 that foster online crime and harms. The resulting insights contribute to a
  better understanding of online threats and help inform policy decisions f
 or safety and security.\n\nZoom link:\nhttps://cam-ac-uk.zoom.us/j/8644449
