Disabled people have a right to privacy, don’t we? So why is social media inundated with stories, pictures, and videos of disabled people in vulnerable or private moments – often shared without their consent? How can we put an end to this in a culture that thrives on attention gained oversharing? And what is the difference between meaningful or educational disability-related content and content that exploits its subject for the sake of virality. We discuss in this episode.
