Farmers’ Protests in India: Digital Toolkits Not a Crime, But a Way to Raise Awareness, Analysts Say
The arrest of Disha Ravi for allegedly editing a protest "toolkit" which was tweeted – and later deleted – by Swedish activist Greta Thunberg has fuelled unrest in India. The toolkit was shared by Thunberg earlier this month amid the ongoing farmers' protests on the outskirts of Delhi – the document called for people to coordinate both online and offline to support the farmers through various means, including protesting outside embassies and the homes of prominent businessmen. The Delhi Police Cyber Cell is now investigating an "international conspiracy" to destabilise India. The toolkit has triggered a huge public debate on social media among activists about how to support protests. According to social media experts, toolkits or resource kits are often employed by political parties, advocacy groups, entertainment industries, and even international organisations including the United Nations to carry out social awareness campaigns and more. Talking to Sputnik, Nishant Kadian, … [Read more...] about Farmers’ Protests in India: Digital Toolkits Not a Crime, But a Way to Raise Awareness, Analysts Say

The hashtag #BlackOutTuesday became the top trending item on Twitter as hundreds of thousands of businesses and individuals, including TV channels and celebrities, posted black screenshots to signal support for racial justice as street protests over the police killing of George Floyd entered a second week. Many companies paused normal work and directed their efforts to support the work of Black Lives Matter and other social justice groups.

Renter goes off on Twitter after property agent implies Indians and Malays can’t keep houses clean
A common source of aggravation for those seeking to rent in Singapore is the fact that some landlords are explicitly discriminatory along racial lines. A woman who recently faced brazen bias while enquiring about a flat in Ang Mo Kio took to Twitter on Aug 16 to raise awareness about the issue after the property agent implied that Indians and Malays can’t keep houses clean. This, despite the woman stating that she and her fellow renters consist of two Chinese and two Eurasian folks, all of whom are Singaporean. The group had been interested in renting the entire four-room flat for a year — an abode that came fully-furnished and would cost $2,300 a month.

The property agent simply responded with an OK emoji and said: “Not a racist but who can keep … [Read more...] about Renter goes off on Twitter after property agent implies Indians and Malays can’t keep houses clean
