Live streaming is an ever-developing area in technology that is becoming increasingly popular. From social media influencers to your next door neighbour, anyone can easily live stream whatever content they choose. In recent months, however, live streaming was used to broadcast the unthinkable when the shooting deaths of 50 people in New Zealand were relayed around the world on Facebook.

On this Tech Talks episode we discuss how social media platforms can manage this issue and whether or not they should be held accountable for the sharing of abhorrent content.
