“Virtual Racism has Real Consequences” - Criola campaign, Brazil.
Criola analyzes geotagging data via Facebook and Twitter to determine a person’s location at the time they posted a hateful message. Afterward, Criola purchases advertising space on billboards near the geotagged location and displays the messages for the world to see, according to the BBC.
However the profile images and identities associated with each post are blurred, as Criola’s goal is to “raise awareness and start a discussion” rather than continue the spread of hate.
