Carl Miller - Confronting Information Threats Online, from Disinformation to Hate, and Conspiracies

The rise of the internet in the 21st century has been accompanied by unprecedented levels of polarisation, division, and coercion. At the same time democracies are being hit by a huge range of different, and rapidly evolving hostile state activities. Not all of them have their origins in Russia, though clearly many do, and these saw a significant scaling up after the 2014 inversion of Donbas.

Today, I am discussing these issues with Carl Miller, an experienced digital researcher, author and international speaker, Partner, and Research Director at CASM Technology. We’ll also be exploring the extraordinary technology and methodology behind Beam: an initiative for Defending Information, developed by Carl Miller and the team at CASM Technology. Carl is also a Visiting Fellow at King's and an International Speaker, as well as author of the fascinating book “The Death of the Gods – The New Global Power Grab”. Carl is interested in how technology is changing society and politics. In 2012 he co-founded the first UK think tank institute dedicated to studying the digital world at Demos and has been its Research Director ever since. He writes widely on tech and society, including for The Economist, Wired, New Scientist, The Sunday Times, the Telegraph, and the Guardian.
