Summary | The internet giants have been saying contradictory things regarding the recent neonazi manifestations in the US. For instance, they praise freedom of speech and claim they're not responsible for the content available on their platforms. They also blocked neonazi content while letting ISIS spread on their platforms. Their censorship is thus seen as arbitrary and follows their ideology.

Le gardien du temple des émojis
(The guardian of the emoji temple)
Newspaper | Le Temps

Topic Tags | censorship, diversity, emojis
Summary | Mark Davis (President of the Unicode Consortium), who lives in Zurich, talks about emojis. Anyone can submit new emoji proposals; but the proposal needs to be convincing. The Consortium has been trying to be more progressive, which is why people can now use same-sex couple emojis, or a hijab emoji. The Consortium does not accept any brand emojis nor famous people emojis (although people would like to see Jesus and Justin Bieber). Keith Winstein claims that nobody should have the right to tell other people which images they can or cannot use.
