On Monday 21st October I’m on the Orwell Prize 2013 launch event panel talking about the phenomenon of online trolling.
This year’s discussion will focus on ‘Internet and the Modern Self: Manners and Abuse Online’. The panel of speakers include Helen Goodman MP, Madam Miaow Says blogger Anna Chen and Professor Suzanne Franks. What is going on after a notable summer of online abuse? Why are online personas so different? How do we fix this?
