“…According to the same survey, the increase is even more pronounced among teens (13-17 years old), going from 36% to 51%. This rise in online anti-social behavior has impacted various groups of people, including journalists (e.g., Holton et al, 2023;Lewis et al, 2020), politicians (e.g., Anne et al, 2023;Tenove et al, 2023), academics (e.g., Gosse et al, 2023;Houlden et al, 2022), women (e.g., Esposito & Breeze, 2022;Kumar et al, 2021), LGBTQ+ (e.g., Mkhize et al, 2020;Strand & Svensson, 2022), ethnic minorities (e.g., Chaudhry & Gruzd, 2020;Li & Nicholson Jr., 2021), religious minorities (e.g., Ferguson et al, 2021;Wahlström et al, 2021), and other vulnerable groups. The motives for engaging in online antisocial behavior are varied, as studies have indicated.…”

The Special Issue on Trust and Safety on Social Media delves into two pressing and interlinked concerns: the growing prevalence of anti-social behavior and the widespread presence of misinformation within and across various social media platforms. The collection of articles featured in the issue collectively examines factors that contribute to these concerns and proposes potential strategies to mitigate their negative impact on social media users and society. The articles included in the issue are extended versions of research first presented at the 2022 International Conference on Social Media & Society (#SMSociety), organized by the Social Media Lab at Toronto Metropolitan University.

HCI scholars are increasingly engaging in research about “marginalized groups,” such as LGBTQ+ people. While normative habitual readings of marginalized people in HCI often highlight real problems, this work has been criticized for flattening heterogeneous experiences and overemphasizing harms. Some have advocated for expanding how we approach research on marginalized people (e.g., assets-based design, the everyday, and joy). Sensitized by unmaking literature, we explore this tension between conditions, experiences, and representations of marginality in HCI scholarship. To do so, we perform a diffractive analysis of posts in a gay online community by bringing two readings of the same data together: a normative habitual reading of marginalization and an expanded reading. By examining the relationship between empirical material and its representations by HCI researchers, we explore how to carefully unmake HCI research, thus maintaining and repairing our research community. We discuss the political and designerly implications of different readings of marginalized people and offer considerations for attending to the processes and afterlives of HCI research.
