About This Project
PROJECT INFORMATION
This website is part of the Understanding “the Biggest Lie on the Internet” project.
The goal of the project is to research and share information about “the biggest lie on the internet” (“I agree to the terms and conditions”). The hope is that broader awareness about “the biggest lie” amongst policymakers, platform providers, and publics, will help guide the changes necessary for the realization of online privacy and reputation deliverables.
