Default Government announces crackdown on online antisemitism

Government announces crackdown on online antisemitism

The new Culture Secretary tackles menace of 'more subtle' forms of antisemitism in new bill

29/11/2022

The government has announced a new crackdown on social media companies in a bid to tackle the most subtle forms of antisemitism.

The new legislation will force tech companies to remove not only illegal hate speech, but also the more nuanced types of antisemitism that seeps onto the internet, despite being supposedly already banned by their platforms’ own terms and conditions.

In an article for the JC, Culture Secretary Michelle Donelan accuses tech platforms of “letting hate flourish, knowing that it drives clicks and engagement”.

These companies have “prioritised profit over people”, the minister said.
