In an event hosted by Index on Censorship, executives from Google, Facebook and Privacy International debate privacy and free speech on the web. New technology has revolutionised freedom of expression, but it’s also transformed the business of censorship. So what will it take to make the internet safe for free speech? Or is it really time for Facebook hara-kiri?
Chaired by Jo Glanville, Editor, Index on Censorship
