Labour MP promotes online harms bill, saying she gets tens of thousands of abusive tweets a month
Labour MP Dame Margaret Hodge has said the government must ban online anonymity or make social media directors personally liable for defamatory tweets, as she revealed she received tens of thousands of abusive tweets a month.
Hodge accused the government of “deliberately delaying” the online harms bill in order to avoid difficult conversations with powerful social media companies and said she was prepared to take up a campaign to make sure the law was tough enough.
