BurnCast: is the internet safe for women?
Welcome to BurnCast, our weekly podcast that discusses tech trends, innovation and news. Hosted by Mich Atagana and Stuart Thomas.
This week’s episode was sparked by discussions around online misogyny and the #YesAllWomen hashtag, which served a platform to debate whether or not the internet is a safe space for women after the perpetrator in the Isla Vista shootings was reported to be motivated by the hatred of women. Twitter users shared their experiences of sexist comments and discussed whether the web was truly an equal platform for all.
