Abstract

Law New Zealand social media misogyny online exposure children's rights safe online environment
This paper aims to recognise the risk of harm that online misogyny poses to children, while equally highlighting children's right to participate in safe online spaces and other's right to freedom of expression online. Through that rights-based lens, this paper critiques New Zealand's existing legal framework governing social media, critiquing its ability to uphold these rights, then analyses the United Kingdom's duty-based framework as a promising alternative.
