Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Online Harassment and Harmful Communications: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Dualta Ó Broin:

If I may make a very simple point, Facebook publishes material on the Internet. We publish our parents portal, our youth bullying prevention hub and our suicide prevention material. That is material that we author and put on the Internet. We provide a platform for over 2 billion people so that they can put their views on the Internet. We would not consider ourselves a publisher for the user content.
