Between 20th of January and 29th of February 2020, OpCode partners (ActiveWatch Romania, DigiQ Slovakia, Never Again Association Poland, the Estonian Human Rights Center and Movement Against Intolerance Spain), in close cooperation with INACH, have conducted the first in a series of shadow monitoring and reporting exercises of illegal hate speech on social media platforms.
The goal of this joint activity is to verify the social media platforms’ Code of Conduct compliance in various periods of time when IT companies are not scrutinized by the European Commissions’ official Monitoring Exercises.
Within this shadow monitoring exercise the partners have used the same monitoring and reporting methodology that is being used by the European Commission.
