New York, 24 September 2015 – A new report released today by the United Nations Broadband Commission reveals that almost three quarters of women online have been exposed to some form of cyber violence, and urges governments and industry to work harder and more effectively together to better protect the growing number of women and girls who are victims of online threats and harassment.
Without concerted global action to curb the various escalating forms of online violence, an unprecedented surge of ‘cyber violence against women and girls (cyber VAWG)’ could run rampant and significantly impede the uptake of broadband by women everywhere, the report contends. It notes that cyber VAWG already exists in many forms, including online harassment, public shaming, the desire to inflict physical harm, sexual assaults, murders and induced suicides.
Anita Sarkeesian, a survivor of cyber violence, speaks at the launch of the new UN report titled Cyber Violence Against Women and Girls: A Worldwide Wake-Up Call.

A spokesperson for the United Nations International Telecommunication Union (ITU) apologized for several errors and poorly sourced material in its Broadband Commission Cyber Violence Against Women and Girls Report, and vowed that it would be much improved in a forthcoming revision.
On September 24, the United Nations Broadband Commission for Digital Development released what it called "a world-wide wake-up call" about the dangers of "cyberviolence" that women and girls around the world face while online. Social media, video games, and sexting, among other things, contribute to this cyberviolence, it argued.
The report was immediately controversial, and even victims of online harassment were highly critical.
Most media criticism focused on the footnotes, first scrutinized by Twitter user Jaime Bravo. Some of the citations were left blank, others provided definitions without citing the source, and one even cited a file on the author's own C: drive.
The report also cited a publication affiliated with controversial activist Lyndon LaRouche, who claimed a link exists between video games such as Pokémon with real world killings.

Then it's a good thing Saudi Arabia just took over the chair for the UN Human Rights Council. They'll get to the bottom of this.

Of course. Not only are her commentaries complete bullshit, she also sent herself and had her friends send her death threats from fake social media profiles so she could claim to be a victim of cyber bullying.
