That’s just rubbish look at the current cabinet make up look at some of our key positions of power I think we have come a very long way in a short time frame.yes still a long way to go.
You’re spot on what a stupid comment! I was going to respond to it but couldn’t be bothered. Crap like that is also divisive and shouldn’t be allowed
Maybe we are, but in the context of this matter regarding abuse on Twitter, etc., to make out that this is merely and English or British issue is quite short-sighted, unless you think bigotry and racism is exclusive to us.
Totally agree. It would also help to reduce the numbers of paedophiles and predators that take advantage of the anonymity
A fully grown adult knows what's right and wrong?I actually think taking the knee and all the recent media has made it 'worse'. I really didn't see this level of abuse before hand. That or it wasn't highlighted as much.
It's not just the clear racists but also people who have have concerns about the BLM movement and George Floyd and everything else that's been on the media.
We have seen a rise in people complaining about the rise in black and female TV presenters and many feeling its a 'tick box' exercise (I don't but they've ruined soccer Saturday by giving it a 'refresh')
You look at these racist tweets and many read like a 8 year old wrote them. I looked at the Reece James one and the guys clearly got issues. It was insane rambling and emojis (I love an emoji as people know).
The simple solution is you have to provide a picture and ID when setting up an account. I really don't know why wouldn't? I did read this morning that a teacher said she had an account and didn't have a photo so her students couldn't see her. I guess that's a valid excuse. You could still provide one on set up and not show on the profile.
I'm sorry but Racism will never go away. I keep reading these idiots need 'educating'.... Please. A fully grown adult knows what's right and wrong. I guess maybe the children growing up in these house holds won't have the same views. The world's that multi cultureral that if you only like white people you've got a sad existence and going to be angry all the time.
Most people under the age of 40 know how to hide an IP address
OK to address this head on, why would giving twitter your details stop hate tweets?
A VPN doesn't hide your IP address from your ISP, a common misconception
Plus using 4G isn’t linked to your router
But you can be traced, that is my point. Until we have the resources to go after people posting hate speech on social media, easy identification doesn't help. You are not anonymous on social media. People think they are, they are not.
You’ll only be caught if you’re using your own router. If you’re using 4G or a public WiFi u won’t be
no but it is linked to your device. The proper registration of devices is a good idea, and in many countries you cannot buy a sim card anonymously and that should be the case in the UK.
I addressed 4g. On a public wifi it become problematic to trace someone. Let's assume they are using their own device the mac number is identifiable unless it is an unregistered device. From the MAC address you can trace the phone back to your pocket.
