If somebody really wants to see that, maybe.
Although I think my bathroom is probably clean.
Nobody wants to see that.
But maybe you have a scenario where you need some technology that is able to tell if there's a camera there or not.
Yeah, I tend to think the same.
I think that the days of worrying about nation state surveillance and consumer technology, we're beyond that now.
There's just surveillance happening everywhere, whether we like it or not.
Thanks for having us today, David.
I'm happy to be here today to enlighten our audience here because most of us don't really experience wars directly, right?
We usually experience them through our screens these days.
And social media has, as you mentioned earlier, become a place where violence is certainly documented, debated, and sometimes even ignored altogether.
And Eric and I, in our research research,
We really wanted to look at these platforms and see how they become sort of a tool to potentially also prevent some of these atrocities, right?
So they become then a platform.
Absolutely.
I think you hit the nail on the head here.
What surprised us most in this comparative case analysis, and by no means is this a generalization for all the cases that might be out there, but really one had an ongoing conflict in Syria at the time when we're doing the research, and one...
had already dealt at a certain extent or to a certain extent with some of the wrongdoings in Canada, that is.
And so it's really interesting to look at it from a more remembrance and collective memory standpoint, as well as what Eric's expertise is on as sort of in terms of to what extent can then future atrocities be prevented or to what extent can also social media campaigns
help stop a war.
