In these days I have been asking myself some serious
questions about free speech and how it has changed due to social media
channels. I think everyone has al least once received offensive comments or
been attacked on various social media channels by unidentifiable users. Bullying
was an understandable phenomenon in high school days when the fear and
insecurity of still immature young people found an outburst in verbal and
physical assaults. The prolongation of such behaviors after a certain age is
worrying because it could end in very unpleasant phenomena. I have noticed that
these behaviors have found a very rapid way of expansion through social
networks and at the beginning I thought that as long as they stopped at
malicious comments and various offenses it could also be an outlet and from a
certain point of view it could also be useful. However, I wondered how
legitimate it was to accept that there are victims of these behaviors, how much
a person's freedom of expression, and therefore in this case also his freedom
of speech, had the right to cause psychological damage to another human being.
It is true that it is a right to be able to speak freely and therefore we must
respect this right but it is an even greater right to not be subjected to
aggression and for this reason I believe that protecting the integrity of a
person is a priority. For this reason, social networks should improve their
techniques to detect and fight bullying and eliminate the existence of these
phantom trolls. I believe that the creators of these realities are also
responsible for their consequences. A good solution would be that of creating
algorithms that could detect offensive words in different languages and ban
their publication, a technique already in use when trying to name certain
characters who have caused genocides in the past. In a conversation, although
of an argumentative and contentious nature, the use of offensive,
discriminatory and humiliating words is not at all necessary and appropriate.
In my opinion, limiting the use of certain words would not violate the right to
speak at all, on the contrary it would benefit the intellectual and personal
growth of the audience of social media channels.
What do you think about this? Have you ever been bullied or
assaulted online? How did it make you feel undergoing such experiences? Do you
think that the measures currently adopted by the various social channels are
sufficient? How should the current situation be improved in your opinion?
