I'm a part of the tech department for an awesome investigative journalism network called OCCRP. I'm really passionate about open source software, artificial intelligence and information security. My open source contributions are now merged with projects like reddit, elementary OS and the Tor Project. I'm running a personal blog where I share my personal stories.

You'll notice at the end that this article is a part of the speaker interview series. As such, we're only asking questions related to the talk(s) of the person we're interviewing. Those controversies are in no way directly related to her talk (titled Open sourcing anti-harassment tools), therefore, they're not included in this interview.
We kind of have something similar to this in Europe. It's called No Hate Speech Movement (http://nohatespeechmovement.org/) and it's sponsored by the Council of Europe. Basically it's a bunch of young people committing not to conduct any kind of hate speech -- online or offline.
I've participated in the workshops organized in my hometown by our youth center with the goal of supporting that movement. The workshops were called No Hate Online = No Hate Offline and I learned some amazing facts and heard a lot of interesting stories from my local community about this problem. It completely changed the way I'm thinking and using the Internet. Unfortunately, not a lot of people decided to participate in these workshops, but those of us who did really learned a lot.
