DESCRIPTION:Common mitigation strategies to combat harmful speech online\,
  such as reporting and blocking\, are often insufficient as they are react
 ive\, involve unethical human labour and impose censorship. This explores 
 alternative counter strategies such as a quarantining tool and automated c
 ounterspeech generator. Quarantining online hate speech and disinformation
  like a computer virus gives power to the individual user\, while a counte
 rspeech generator is specifically designed to produce diverse counter resp
 onses 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 s
 trategies and discuss necessary further developments. \n\nJoin Zoom Meetin
