This week we are joined by Dr. Matti Pohjonen to speak about Extreme Speech & Content Moderation Online. For the past 10 years, Matti has developed critical-comparative research approaches for understanding digital cultures globally. This has included work on international news and blogging in India, mobile technology in East Africa, and exploring new methods in “big data” analysis and artificial intelligence for digital media research. Matti has taught at SOAS in Global Media & Post National Communication; he is now a researcher at the University of Helsinki where he is working on global and comparative dimensions of platform accountability.
