Notas do Editor
- 1973. Idealists at Berkeley install computer terminals in libraries and record stores to create public assess digital communications for their neighborhood.
- They talk about supporting the “liberation of power” and the “wealth of the information sharing community.” But let’s look closer at their terminal. It charges 25 cents per post! As Amy Bruckman, who’s here in the room, has pointed out, even in the earliest days of Internet idealism, they had a problem with people being terrible to each other online.
- Ten years later, Sara Kiesler and colleagues start worrying that people might be worse to each other on computers than elsewhere. And what was the specter that haunted computer communications?
- “Gripenet,” the possibility that workers might do labor organizing or try to change their workplace culture using the internet.
- Because of course, as we learned in the Coal Miner’s Strikes of 1902, conversations with employers in a democracy always involve considering the evidence and arriving at a friendly agreement over the treatment of workers.
- In the thirty years since Kiesler’s article, we’ve come to see the deep power of social technologies to communicate political change
- And make visible to us profound social changes in our respect for human dignity and rights as a society
- But we’ve also gained remarkable capacities to organize harm, as many in this room have personally experienced, whether you’ve been a target of networks like GamerGate, or some other coordinated harassment.
- As digital communications have become a basic part of human life, so has harassment. Maeve Duggan
- As much as we need to acknowledge the risk to women and marginalized groups, we also need to recognize that everyone shares these risks— with a greater percentage of men than women reporting that they face physical threats online.
- And it’s not just online risks. it Katherine Clark
- 1993 New Yorker Cartoon by Peter Steiner
- As we debate whether anonymity is part of the problem, we should acknowledge new research that shows how important it is for the most vulnerable— with women on reddit being more likely to use strong anonymity protections.
- And anonymity playing a key role for people who seek support for sexual abuse
- Many choose to be anonymous to be treated fairly and equally
- In half of online harassment, anonymity might not be an issue at all — in cases like domestic abuse and bullying, where people know their harassers.
- And we have come to know and care for strangers on the Internet. As those bonds grow, we feel their suffering, and we want to protect each other- as Andrew McMillen’s moving article about Wikipedia’s response to mental illness has reminded us.
- And so we ask how to respond. Berkman Klein Colleague Larry Lessig’s work on how to regulate the Internet was prompted by Julian Dibbell’s article on a Rape in Cyberspace.
- and 17 years later, we have a complex set of layers that govern what we’re allowed to do online. Here in the room, Alice Marwick and Andy Sellars have written about the relationship between law and online harassment. Many people from platforms are constantly working out policies, often at a rate of several new ones a day. And many of us think about community responses, including Lindsay Blackwell, who’s doing research on peer support with HeartMob.
- Right now, platforms are under incredible pressure over the policies and decisions that they make— expected to “solve” online harassment.
- And yet at the same time, we’re still in the early days of figuring out what it means for democracies to have our speech regulated by private corporations.
- Often, when people come to designers, this is what they want.
- They think of us as santa, and what they want might very well escalate our conflicts rather than resolve them.
- And what about that dislike button? Ratings and voting are common online, but do they reduce problems?
- Cliff Lampe did work in the early 2000s on voting systems, showing how volunteers can actually be good at rating participation. But it’s also possible that these voting systems may not achieve the ends that we hope, as Justin Cheng has found.

- Any response is ultimately a blend of social and technical, as Kevin Munger’s ongoing experiments show us. Kevin is using social bots to test the effect of responding to racial slurs that people share on Twitter. And much of Susan Benesch’s research has examined this kind of “counter-speech” in the wild.
- As we talk about these issues, we need to be thinking about the scale and speed at which online harassment evolves, and the scale of the tools we now have at our disposal for addressing them. At Microsoft, Ron Kohavi. In day two, we will discuss infrastructures of experimentation
- Infrastructures of Understanding. Many of our questions have parallels in debates over digital copyright, which is another fast-evolving area. Last night, I looked up Olympic copyright takedowns on Lumen and saw requests from the Olympic Committee to take down livestreams from the olympics. Periscope is only 18 months old. And Lumen opens up this emerging area of regulation to further discussion. Adam Holland from Lumen, which was founded 15 years ago as an archive for copyright takedown requests, is helping us understand emerging questions.
- However online harassment just something we can put in a test tube. It’s a social phenomenon that is part of wider structures of society and culture. Whitney Phillips started out wanting to understand why Trolls did what they did, and instead wrote about factors in attention economies and contemporary culture that make it mainstream. Her book, which is deeply valuable, came out of wrestling with the incomplete data of her subject.
- All of you know that I’ve just *begun* to outline *part* of the conversation about online harassment, the conversation we are here to have. And not just to gain intellectual clarity— though that is one of our goals — but to advance concrete projects that could transform people’s lives in fundamental ways toward collective well-being, justice, and potential as human beings.
- Day One: Projects
- Day Two: Infrastructures & Enablers
- The collective experience, resources, expertise, and wisdom in this room is profound. Each of you has been invited because we believe that you can do something amazing over the next two days. And you already have — I’ve loved the experience of hearing you share your ideas and passions. As we join in conversations, let’s be proactive to look for points of connection or ways that we can support someone else’s work by opening our networks, knowledge, and organizations. And that means paying attention to who’s NOT in this room as much as who *is* here.
- Since not all of us can have our names listed publicly, we are creating a document out of this event that represents the public record of our conversations. That way, if you want to link someone up with a person or a resource, advocate for a project in your organization, or incorporate feedback in your designs. Our report will be a tool to help you bring others into the conversation. This becomes especially important on day two. By listing out and defining the impacts and projects enabled by a particular infrastructure or collaboration, we support each other to scope those projects well, make them more concrete, and articulate the impact that can come from them.
