Tech vs. Hate – An Online Conference Dedicated to Rising Online Antisemitism

According to the ADL, antisemitism has surged 337 percent in the US following the barbaric events of October 7. Online Jew hatred is even worse, with the Global Project Against Hate and Extremism reporting a 500 percent increase in antisemitism on fringe social platforms. As the importance of online safety increases, so, too, does the need to leverage unique technology to mitigate harmful narratives, fueled by propaganda and misinformation. Federation is proud to partner with Tel Aviv University for Tech vs. Hate: Combating Online Antisemitism, which will be held online Wednesday, June 26 at noon EST. Tech vs. Hate will focus on educating individuals and professionals involved in the tech sector through discussions on the latest technology, evolving antisemitic trends and tools that individuals and companies can use to take action and foster a safer world. Panels will include speakers from innovative organizations such as Cyberwell, Decoding Antisemitism and Save-AI. For more information and to register for virtual participation, please click here.
