Rebecca Ratcliffe and Ardila Syakriah, The Guardian, The online hate campaign turning Indonesians against Rohingya refugees, 18 Jan 2024 “In a statement this week, Human Rights Watch accused anonymous accounts on Instagram, X and TikTok, of spreading disinformation and misinformation about Rohingya refugees. Anonymous accounts also published personal information about local UNHCR staff online, leading to online threats putting their safety at risk, HRW said. All three platforms have policies that forbid doxing, in which a person’s private information is shared online.”
