Les commentaires injurieux, le harcèlement et l’incitation à la violence passent facilement à travers les mailles des outils de modération des contenus des plateformes en ligne, selon un nouveau rapport de l’Agence des droits fondamentaux de l’Union européenne (FRA). Celui-ci montre que la plupart des discours de haine en ligne ciblent les femmes, mais que les personnes d’ascendance africaine, les Roms et les Juifs sont également touchés. Le manque d’accès aux données des plateformes et la mauvaise compréhension de ce qui constitue un discours de haine entravent les efforts visant à lutter contre la haine en ligne. La FRA appelle à davantage de transparence et d’orientations afin de garantir à tous un espace en ligne plus sûr.
