UN Report on Cyber Violence, Violence Against Women and Girls
The United Nations Broadband Commission released a report on "Cyber VAWG" (Violence Against Women and Girls), claiming that 73% of women have experienced online abuse. The report calls for "effective terms of service" to combat what it describes as a pandemic of online violence. Critics argue that the UN's definition of "violence" is being expanded to include speech, potentially threatening global internet freedom.
