Abstract

The attack on two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, last week saw the perpetrator publish footage of his violent attack, as it was happening, online. That footage was republished on various platforms as well as by some news media outlets. It is very likely the perpetrator could not have released this footage, live and to a global audience, without the resource provided by online platforms.
