New Zealand PM urges global action on social media perils via SABCNewsOnline

A white supremacist gunman streamed his 17-minutes of carnage in which he is accused of killing 50 Muslim worshippers during their Friday prayers.

Ardern said while her focus was on the people of New Zealand, there were issues world leaders needed “to confront collectively”. “There is an argument there to be made for us to take a united front on a global issue. This is not just an issue for New Zealand, the fact that social media platforms have been used to spread violence material that incites violence. All of us need to present a united front.”

The House Committee on Homeland Security called it “critically important” to filter such violent images.
