1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,720 Speaker 1: Already and this this is the Daily This is the 2 00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:15,520 Speaker 1: Daily OS. Oh, now it makes sense. Good morning and 3 00:00:15,560 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: welcome to the Daily OS. It's Thursday, the eighth of January. 4 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: I'm Billy fitz Simon. 5 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:20,599 Speaker 2: I'm Sam Kazloski. 6 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,160 Speaker 1: Where is the line when it comes to the online 7 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: harassment of public figures? Well, a group of people in 8 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:30,480 Speaker 1: France have just found out. Earlier this week, ten people 9 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: were found guilty of cyber bullying France's First Lady, Brigitte 10 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:38,160 Speaker 1: Macron over repeated false online claims about her gender identity 11 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: and her relationship with her husband, French President Emmanuel mccron. Well, 12 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 1: tell you what you need to know about the landmark 13 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:47,599 Speaker 1: case in today's podcast. 14 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 2: Billy, A really interesting topic that we've got fevor on today. 15 00:00:54,160 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 2: It's less about French politics and it's more about the 16 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 2: Internet and the changing way in which the Internet is governed. 17 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: Before we rip into the case this week and the results, 18 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 2: why don't you explain to us who bite Macron is 19 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,640 Speaker 2: for anyone? And I'm sure there's quite a few of 20 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 2: us who aren't super close followers of French politics. 21 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: Yes, Well, like you said, luckily, this actually isn't that 22 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 1: much about French politics. All you need to know is 23 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:22,279 Speaker 1: the French president who is Emmanuel Macron, and his wife 24 00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 1: who is Brigitte Macron. So she is France's first lady 25 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: and she has been since twenty seventeen, which is when 26 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:34,560 Speaker 1: Emmanuel Macron became president. Now, Brigitte Macron is also a 27 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: former drama teacher, and quite famously, she was actually Emmanuel 28 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: Macron's drama teacher. 29 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 2: Yes, that's how they first met, right, is how they. 30 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: First met, and that is part of why the pair 31 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: have been subject to so much speculation and misinformation and 32 00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: harassment since they entered the political arena all those years ago. 33 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 1: So just some quick context to explain that relationship a 34 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 1: little bit more so. Emmanuel mccron was fifteen when they 35 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,320 Speaker 1: first met. They met at a school where Brigitte was 36 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: a drama teacher. She was thirty nine at the time. 37 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: She was married with kids. She then divorced her husband 38 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: and the to her and Emmanuel. They formed a relationship 39 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 1: after he left school. They married in two thousand and seven. 40 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 2: So ten years before he became the president. 41 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: Yes, and he was twenty nine when they got married. 42 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,239 Speaker 2: Okay, so that kind of sets the scene on their relationship. 43 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: It's unusual for us on this podcast to be talking 44 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 2: about the personal relationships of world leaders, but when it 45 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 2: was put in front of a course, it kind of 46 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 2: became the focal point. Why don't you tell me about 47 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 2: this case? 48 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, So, Brigitte Macron, she filed this legal complaint against 49 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 1: a group of people whose posts on X which is 50 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: formerly Twitter. Those posts gained a lot of attention on 51 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 1: and as you know on Twitter, as you probably know, sorry, 52 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,359 Speaker 1: on X, I should say you don't necessarily need a 53 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: super large following in order for your post to gain 54 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 1: widespread attention. 55 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 2: It's kind of like TTOK in that way, where one post, 56 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 2: if you've got one follower, that can still get in 57 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:16,960 Speaker 2: front of millions of people. 58 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and so in terms of what those posts actually said, 59 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: the group accused missus Macron of pedophilia over her relationship 60 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: with President Macron, and those claims were false. So the 61 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: court ruled on that that any suggestion of pedophilia when 62 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: it comes to their relationship is wrong. On top of 63 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: those claims, so they were the ones that linked the 64 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: relationship to pedophilia. But then separate to that, there were 65 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: also posts that spread an online conspiracy theory that alleged 66 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: missus macron was born male under the name Jean Michel, 67 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: which is actually the name of her older brother. Okay, 68 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: so some of the posts claimed that her brother had 69 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: changed gender and started using her name Bridget. 70 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 2: Okay, So, I mean, there's lots of misinformation about most 71 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 2: public figures and most political figures in the world. What 72 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 2: do we know about the defendants? These ten people who 73 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 2: you keep talking about is the group that made these claims. 74 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: So we know that there were eight men and two 75 00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: women in this group. Their ages ranged between forty one 76 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: and sixty five, and most of them denied wrongdoing. There 77 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: was just one of them who apologized to missus mccron 78 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 1: during the trial. Now, those who denied wrongdoing, they argued 79 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: the posts were said in a satirical nature or were 80 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: just meant to be taken as lighthearted jokes as you 81 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: know on the internet, lighthearted, I guess jokes are set 82 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: all the time, but you can't. 83 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 2: Really convey tone right now, no written comments. 84 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: But what this court found is that they were malicious 85 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:00,280 Speaker 1: in the intent behind these posts and that they could 86 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 1: not have been considered lighthearted in nature when they were 87 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: making such serious claims like pedophilia. 88 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 2: So just clarify for me what exactly was the crime 89 00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 2: that they were prosecuted and ultimately found guilty of. 90 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,960 Speaker 1: So cyberbullying and online harassment, which is the same thing. 91 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 2: Okay, So they went and they tried to defend themselves 92 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,599 Speaker 2: against these crimes. They lost, they were found guilty, and 93 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 2: they were sentenced, right, they were sentenced. 94 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 1: I will also just quickly mention that one other thing 95 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,000 Speaker 1: that they said in their defense is that they said 96 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: some of what they posted should actually be cause for 97 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: legitimate public debate. So this actually should be something they 98 00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: said that should be out there for the public to 99 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: debate and make up their own mind on. Does that 100 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:44,280 Speaker 1: make sense. 101 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, So it's kind of I mean, I'm not very 102 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 2: familiar with French defamation law and French free speech law, 103 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 2: but it sounds like it's kind of the same principles 104 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 2: that we have here in Australia, which is, you're allowed 105 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,600 Speaker 2: to make fun of political figures as political satire and 106 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 2: it's fairy hard to sue someone, for example, for defamation 107 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: because of that. And you're also allowed to have discussions 108 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 2: about topics which are really relevant to public interest and 109 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,239 Speaker 2: they deserve to be talked about in public. It sounds 110 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,600 Speaker 2: like they tried to argue that these topics, the perophilia 111 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 2: allegations and the gender questions were relevant to the public 112 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 2: discourse and or meant to be funny, and they lost 113 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 2: on both of those accounts exactly. 114 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: They argued that, but the court overruled them and said no, 115 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 1: this was actually cyberbulling and was malicious in its attent. 116 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 2: So they're going to prison. 117 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 1: So they were found guilty of cyberbulling and they were 118 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: given something called suspended prison terms, which just means that 119 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:46,280 Speaker 1: they can remain in the community under really strict conditions, 120 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 1: and if they break those conditions, then they will go 121 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: to jail. One person was actually jailed immediately because they 122 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: failed to turn up to court. That was one part 123 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: of the sentence. Another part is that they had to 124 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: receive mandatory online harassment awareness training, which I didn't know 125 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: was a thing, but it is a thing. And then 126 00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: there were also fines involved. So each defendant was fined 127 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: around one thousand Australian dollars and they were also ordered 128 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 1: to collectively pay about seventeen five hundred Australian dollars. Again, 129 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: I've just done the conversion in compensation to Brigitte Macron. 130 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,680 Speaker 2: It actually is interesting to hear you explain this case 131 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 2: in the context of other news reports that came out 132 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: last week talking about how France might follow Australia's lead 133 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 2: in legislating a under sixteens social media ban. It sounds 134 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 2: like they're kind of on the front foot here in 135 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 2: terms of legislating and regulating social media. 136 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: Well, you could definitely say that Emmanuel Macron is at 137 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: the forefront of, you know, creating this push to crack 138 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: down on social media in France. 139 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean even the fact that if you 140 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 2: think about how many anonymous posters there are on the Internet, 141 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 2: the fact that they had, you know, people of the 142 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 2: same nationality is them that they could prosecute in the 143 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 2: National Court. It's pretty remarkable. Yeah. 144 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: Wait, I have one more thing to add with the sentence. 145 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 1: They also the defendants, some of them have been banned 146 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:17,760 Speaker 1: from using x which is the social media platform that 147 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: was involved in this case. They've been banned from using 148 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 1: it for six months. 149 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: The other thing I thought of was Candace Owens, the 150 00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 2: US political commentator, because Brigitte mccron is also suing. 151 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: Her, right, Yes, so there are actually several ongoing legal 152 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 1: actions that have been brought forward by missus macron. This 153 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: is one of them. There is also Candace Owens, and 154 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 1: then there are also others, so there's quite a few. 155 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,800 Speaker 1: In terms of Candace Owens, she's definitely the most high 156 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 1: profile person who Missus mcron has tried to sue or 157 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:50,240 Speaker 1: is suing. For anyone who doesn't know Candace Owens, she 158 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 1: is an American right wing political commentator and she's been 159 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: known for promoting conspiracy theories online. You might recognize her 160 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: name because the Australian government did refuse her entry to 161 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 1: the country when she tried to come here for speaking 162 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:09,439 Speaker 1: to her. Now, Missus mccron filed a defamation lawsuit against 163 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 1: Owen's last July over her claims that missus mcron was 164 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: born a man. 165 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,680 Speaker 2: So those same gender claims that you talked about in 166 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:18,280 Speaker 2: the other case. 167 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 1: Owens actually published an eight part YouTube series called Becoming 168 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: Bridgite which included those claims. So this wasn't just you know, 169 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,280 Speaker 1: a post here or there. This is an eight. 170 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 2: Part yeah, an offhanded comment, Yeah, no, this. 171 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: Is a you know, something that was very carefully considered 172 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,800 Speaker 1: in how it was published. Clearly if it's an eight 173 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: part YouTube series, and separate to the gender claims, she 174 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: also actually claimed that the Macrons are blood relatives, and 175 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:44,480 Speaker 1: there were a whole range of other claims that I 176 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: won't get into, but you know, it was much larger 177 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: than just the gender point. Now that case is yet 178 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: to go to trial, but will be very high profile 179 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: when it does. I will also just quickly mention that 180 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: there has been another ruling on this kind of case before. 181 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:06,199 Speaker 1: It actually involved one of the same defendants sentenced this week. 182 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: Interesting now, that case initially ruled in Missus mccron's favor, 183 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 1: just like this one that we're spoken about today did, 184 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: but then it was overturned on appeal, and the appeals 185 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: court said the reason that it was overturned is because 186 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: they concluded that saying someone has changed their gender, or 187 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: accusing someone of changing their gender is not necessarily an 188 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: attack on their honor, which is the core principle of defamation. 189 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 2: Law, a really messy part of the law. I think 190 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 2: all of this and what really stood out for me 191 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:47,079 Speaker 2: is that we're essentially talking about trolling here and in 192 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 2: what is quite a new space, the Internet, and it's 193 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 2: quite you know, now it's standard that all political leaders 194 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 2: are trolled across every platform. We haven't seen too many 195 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 2: cases like this where trolls are actually prosecuted and prosecuted 196 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 2: successfully by a high profile person, you know, as clear 197 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,959 Speaker 2: cut as the French court has decided here. 198 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's also a story about fake news. Like 199 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 1: you and I know people are posting fake news on 200 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: I mean not just you and I know, everyone knows this, 201 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: that people are posting fake news to the Internet all 202 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: the time. And at what point does it cross a 203 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: line where a court needs to actually get involved here, 204 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 1: whether that's because you've posted something that is completely untrue 205 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 1: or because it's actually really hurting someone. I also think, 206 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: just to end on this note, I briefly said it before, 207 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: but what's particularly interesting about this case is that these 208 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:44,560 Speaker 1: weren't necessarily people with really large followings. Some were, but 209 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: some weren't. And you don't need to have a large 210 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: social media following for your words to make a difference 211 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,040 Speaker 1: in the arena of social media and the arena of Internet. 212 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: You can, you know, be someone who doesn't have many followers, 213 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 1: but you can still have a really huge impact with 214 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: your words. And that's what this case is also about which. 215 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 2: I guess is the beauty and scary part of algorithms 216 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 2: that your words with one hundred followers can actually explode 217 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 2: to millions and millions. Billy, thank you for taking us 218 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 2: through that really messy and constantly evolving part of the law. 219 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 2: As we know from the end of last year, this 220 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 2: is a really major area of law reform, is the 221 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,839 Speaker 2: way in which online claims are presented to court and 222 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:30,960 Speaker 2: prosecuted successfully. Thanks so much for that. 223 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,120 Speaker 1: Thank you. It's not often that I'm explaining the law 224 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 1: to you. 225 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 2: I know, it's quite fun, but it's quite a pleasure. 226 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 2: It's really interesting, and thank you for joining us today 227 00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,280 Speaker 2: on TDA.
