Book excerpt: In a great many cases, however, the reputational harm derived not from the posting of a false statement, but from the posting of either a true statement or a non-consensual disclosure where the truth of the contents of the disclosure was not in dispute (e.g. [...] The internet, in particular, could re-open a variety of issues of relevance to defamation law and to the social value of the protection of reputation because it offers a widespread opportunity for all of those with a connection to distribute their messages, often with an added sense of anonymity. [...] For example, all of our participants recognized Instagram as a place to build a reputation as "artsy" and to post things about "your life and food and tips and hacks" (Ashley) to show you are living an "outgoing, happy and ... fruitful life" (Caitlyn); Facebook was seen as a place to appear to be "social", "family-oriented", "accomplished" and someone who travels; and LinkedIn was a place to "be pro [...] They don't actually get to see yourself ... someone like that like sees me in person would obviously know like the more like traits about me ... people do-like that like know you in real life, there's just going to know like the full side of you ... So like there's these like almost like these two-the person you're trying to portray on social media versus like the person you kind of are. [...] For example: ... in the realm of like dating and all like people like always look at how many followers you have and like what's ... your ratio, you know, how many people, ah, you follow compared to following you ...

Book Media Law and Policy in the Internet Age

Download or read book Media Law and Policy in the Internet Age written by Doreen Weisenhaus and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet brings opportunity and peril for media freedom and freedom of expression. It enables new forms of publication and extends the reach of traditional publishers, but its power increases the potential damage of harmful speech and invites state regulation and censorship as well as manipulation by private and commercial interests. In jurisdictions around the world, courts, lawmakers and regulators grapple with these contradictions and challenges in different ways with different goals in mind. The media law reforms they are adopting or considering contain crucial lessons for those forming their own responses or who seek to understand how technology is driving such rapid change in how information and opinion are distributed or restricted. In this book, many of the world's leading authorities examine the emerging landscape of reform in nations with variable political and legal contexts. They analyse developments particularly through the prisms of defamation and media regulation, but also explore the impact of technology on privacy law and national security. Whether as jurists, lawmakers, legal practitioners or scholars, they are at the front lines of a story of epic change in how and why the Internet is changing the nature and raising the stakes of 21st century communication and expression.

Book Frequently Asked Questions About Slander and Libel in the Digital Age

Download or read book Frequently Asked Questions About Slander and Libel in the Digital Age written by Marie D. Jones and published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc. This book was released on 2012-12-15 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now that online communication has become a routine part of everyday life, it is important for teens to understand how constitutional principles apply in the digital age. According to the courts, the First Amendment right to free speech applies online. However, this guarantee is subject to the same limits as in person and in print: citizens can’t defame, libel, or slander others. But due to the anonymity, speed, and enormous reach of the Internet, it is unfortunately easier than ever to destroy a person’s reputation by posting false information online. The author explains what kinds of speech constitute defamation, including libel and slander, and how to handle the issue when it arises in teen life. Related issues, including cyberbullying and hate speech, are also addressed.

Download or read book The Future of Reputation written by Daniel J. Solove and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teeming with chatrooms, online discussion groups, and blogs, the Internet offers previously unimagined opportunities for personal expression and communication. But there's a dark side to the story. A trail of information fragments about us is forever preserved on the Internet, instantly available in a Google search. A permanent chronicle of our private lives--often of dubious reliability and sometimes totally false--will follow us wherever we go, accessible to friends, strangers, dates, employers, neighbors, relatives, and anyone else who cares to look. This engrossing book, brimming with amazing examples of gossip, slander, and rumor on the Internet, explores the profound implications of the online collision between free speech and privacy. Daniel Solove, an authority on information privacy law, offers a fascinating account of how the Internet is transforming gossip, the way we shame others, and our ability to protect our own reputations. Focusing on blogs, Internet communities, cybermobs, and other current trends, he shows that, ironically, the unconstrained flow of information on the Internet may impede opportunities for self-development and freedom. Long-standing notions of privacy need review, the author contends: unless we establish a balance between privacy and free speech, we may discover that the freedom of the Internet makes us less free.
