CNA938 Rewind - The Big Question: Are we relying too much on the law to police our online behaviour?
The new Online Safety Commission (OSC) to help victims of online harms secure swift content takedowns and restrict offender accounts has opened its doors on Monday (29 Jun). It’s meant to help victims deal with online harms such as doxxing, online harassment, stalking and the sharing of harmful content via a more direct legal avenue to seek help. With the OSC in effect, will it drive people to behave better online or will it make people complacent, leaving the policing to the authorities? Andrea Heng and Hairianto Diman speak with Andrea Chan, Group Head of TOUCH Counselling & Psychological Services, and Dymples Leong, Associate Research Fellow, Centre of Excellence for National Security, S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies, to find out.
