Kate is a researcher with the Center for Media, Data and Society at Central European University's School of Public Policy, and an Affiliate of Harvard University's Berkman Klein Center on Internet and Society. She will be speaking about her research into the policies and practices of social media companies regarding extremism online and the impact on freedom of expression as part of the EU funded VOX-Pol project (voxpol.eu). Her work also examines the use of new and old technologies for social change and community owned infrastructure as one of many responses to the defacto privatization of public spaces.
