BAGUIO CITY, Philippines – A red-tagged Baguio journalist has urged the Commission on Human Rights regional office in the Cordillera to request Meta to provide the internet protocol (IP) addresses of Facebook accounts posting “malicious and dangerous allegations,” associating him with the communist rebels.
“Red-tagging on Facebook and other social media platforms is a form of online violence and hate speech that usually translates to real-world threats and attacks against the victims,” said Northern Dispatch managing editor Sherwin De Vera in an interview in August 19.
