Against all forms of extremism disinformation
and hate speech
Manifesto
The problem
Economic crises, health emergencies, and political instability are the perfect breeding ground for the proliferation of anti-democratic and subversive ideas.
Often, they hide behind simple, reassuring, and enticing messages.
The web is the ideal medium for spreading these messages: it is fast, reaches everyone, and it is very difficult to trace back to the originators.
The lengthy public processes do not allow for an even fight against organized disinformation.
When it is finally struck down, it has already caused irreparable damage.
Our purpose
Our goal is to prevent hate and disinformation campaigns created behind closed doors from steering public consciousness against something or someone, altering the democratic order.
We do not have a common political orientation and are not interested in favoring any particular side.
We fight for a network where freedom of expression does not coincide with the right to deception and manipulation.
Our commitment
Luuminet identifies and counters organized forms of public opinion manipulation on the web.
We create counter-information actions to balance the negative effects of fake news and hate speech and support public and private institutions that are committed to protecting citizens’ rights to a network free from falsehoods and alterations.
We do this through the analysis and monitoring of information on social networks and news sites.
Who we are
We are a non-profit association composed of professionals in information technology, communication with a background on policy making.
