Ending cyberdiscrimination and online hate

Amendment No. 7 | Doc. 14217 | 24 January 2017

Committee
Committee on Culture, Science, Education and Media
Origin
2017 - First part-session

In the draft resolution, paragraph 7.2.2, after the word "online", insert the following words:

"incitement to violence against a person or a group of persons,"

Explanatory note

Paragraph 7.2.2 requires that all forms of online bullying, harassment, threats and stalking shall be "effectively prosecuted under national law". It seems appropriate to include online conduct which publicly incites violence against a person or a group of persons.
