understanding the kind of evidence we have for trolls because some trolling can become severely serious, those might not go as far as the crime court but will independent up at the magistrate's court. what i have knowledge emphasized is we need to curb the mall irk information act which is way out of date, and more pr profound legislation. >> the anonymity point i wanted to talk about. as far as the character traits of many of these trolls, they are manipulative, social yoa pathic. sociopathic. could these be people that you are sort of coming into contact with every day or they're out in society out in public but i suppose this kind of behavior only emerges when they're taking part in an anonymous forum. >> yes. you're quite right. because anonymity is the central core feature of why they do troll. if they were not to be anonymous, we would see a profound reduction in trolling behavior. they have other means of causing self-injury online. and what we do need really is to review basically the whole level of moderation and have independent moderation work independently from people on twi

they will make clear that the trolls have a lasting effect. they encourage victims to report the abusers by publishing their names. they say troll says are preventing it from becoming a major source of information. although it is positive steps father, governments need to do more. >> those in any country represents lack empathy with others, their victims, they tend to be very high on manipulating and controlling the minds of their victims right across the world and any culture especially in relation to crime, there has been trolls that have a high level of evidence to show that trolls have been causally or partially causally concerned with those who are vulnerable to suicidal and self-harm. we do have evidence that many young people have died by suicide and self-harm as a consequence of being a victim to internet trolls. remember, of course, it is important to understand that trolls can work in clusters in most countries. this raises a high level of status within a cluster group of trolls because they get more pay offs. the people that die by

now twitter has vowed to stamp out trolls. they will make it clear to trolls that it has a lasting affect in the off line world. and they have asked to publish their names. specializing in international law, thank you for being with us. do you think these measures will reduce the amount of bullying that will happen on twitter? >> yes, i think if it becomes compulsory for every user to provide their mobile number that, would pretty much diminish bullying from twitter. my understanding is that twitter has asking a small number of users to provide mobile telephone details. unless this policy becomes more wide-ranging, i feel we are only going to see a big change very soon. >> why do you think twitter has been perhaps more prone to that cyberbullying than other sites? >> we know that--twitter reluctantly to ask users for private information. by doing this they're encouraging bad users and neglecting their good users. why they're doing that i think is up to the viewers to make up their own mind. but if it asks for as little informa

trolling the left. i think this was targeted as a means to go after bill clinton early, and sort of to get under hillary clinton's skin a little bit. and, you know, going back to what trump said in 2008, i just point out, it sort of seems to me that the mead dwra should have picked up on something in august, and it hasn't yesterday yet, which it doesn't matter if you can pull out quotes trump said, that hypocrisy, that doesn't work with him because he's sort of an exceptional candidate. >> because he looked at all the media coverage of trump over the past six months. as you put it, he owned the 2015 news cycle and he discussed this two-step dance that he does with the media. explain to us what you mean by that. >> sure. often, we'll see headlines that say donald trump dominated the media or dominates -- dominated the debate pep dominates the media in more than one way. it's not just that, you know, he he gets more coverage than any other candidate. he is able to redefine the terms of the debate, he's ab

bernie sanders i think karen is right, he's trolling. he does want the attention. but donald trump revolutionized this race in a way bernie sanders those would ref newsize the race. bernie sanders has become sort of a dud. donald trump altered the way the race is going to go, but on the democratic side it looks like hillary clinton will win, it doesn't look like bernie sanders will start the revolution he came to ignite. lea: it seems like donald trump is going to capitalize on the attention either way whether it's hillary clinton or bernie sanders. >> if if you follow donald trump's twitter account he's feeding the attention machine all the time. but it's working for him. i think it's just as unlikely he could poach any of bernie sanders he voters either. they will not come aboard a candidate that's talking about deporting 11 to 14 million people. lea: thank you both for joining us. gregg: iraqi forces score a major victory against isis as they take back ramadi from the terrorists. this is more than just a psychological win. it could also help them retake control

you mentioned trolling individual engagement, one-on-one, not really effective or a good use of u.s.ources? why not try to engage the individual accounts one-on-one? not a bad idea. the problem is you just don't have the numbers. just talking twitter alone, an average of 40 to 50,000 pro isis accounts. at cdc -- at cscc, there were three. it had six twitter handles. isis and ice's supporters had 40 or 50,000. of which, maybe 3000 -- i'm not should have engaged, but there is something very important and that is how they radicalized. occurs ondicalization a one-to-one basis. me talking to you, that is something that may be explored and maybe government cannot do, but government can do with a private sector. you need someone who will basically have those long conversations with people who are on the fence about whether or not to become terrorists or not. more akin to the work that social workers or people who work with gangs or with other pathological tendencies people tend to have. it is something that needs to be done. cscc never had that mandate. host: one of the arabic twitter handl
