Lumen Database
The Lumen database collects and analyzes legal complaints and requests for removal of online materials, helping Internet users to know their rights and understand the law. These data enable us to study the prevalence of legal threats and let Internet users see the source of content removals.
Sessions
The session will bring online takedown transparency best practices to the Arabic and English speaking communities, and will evaluate how these best practices can be modified to meet the participant's research and activities needs.
Additionally, we also hope that local/national online platforms in the Arabic speaking region that are committed to transparency and informing their user communities will want to deepen this commitment by sharing the takedown request they receive with the Lumen Database.
