Algorithmic Hate: Brenton Tarrant and the Dark Social Web by Luke Munn

By Geert Lovink, March 19, 2019.

“From where did you receive/research/develop your beliefs? The internet, of course.” -Brenton Tarrant

Both the dark web and social media, then, while containing important elements, seem inadequate on their own. These supposedly separate spheres appear to be merging, feeding off each other to form a cohesive online environment. I suggest, then, that Tarrant was encompassed by a seamless blend of recommended racist content and memetically racist humans—a dark social web.
