Episode 4.5: “Create Just Worlds": Can We Break Extremism's Hold on Gaming?

Video games are supposed to be fun and provide players with safe, supportive communities. Unfortunately and unsurprisingly, extremists are ruining gaming for everyone. On this month’s episode of extremely, Oren Segal and Jessica Reaves talk to Mariana Olaizola Rosenblat, Policy Advisor on technology and law at the NYU Stern Center for Business and Human Rights. Rosenblat studies the societal impact of games and social media and has written multiple pieces during her time at NYU, including the watershed report, “Gaming the System: How Extremists Exploit Gaming Sites And What Can Be Done To Counter Them."
