What’s your thought on the proposed social media and hate speech bill by the National Assembly? I like social media because the platforms enable ordinary people to interact with the powerful and leaders. Unfortunately, the credibility of social media is being rubbished by fake news and hate speech capable of causing havoc in the society. As a result, older people are deserting social media to the chagrin of the youths who need it the most. That is why I want some form of regulation of the practices of social media provided that the sanctions for infraction would not include capital punishment.
