Gender Equality 0 Internet 1




This from The Verge: Emma Watson nude photo threats were apparently a plot to kill 4chan.

In which, emmayouarenext.com is revealed to be a hoax and a mightily murky one at that. But the thing that gets me is this:

The organizer says that emmayouarenext.com reached 48 million visitors, 7 million Facebook shares and likes, and 3 million Twitter mentions.

As of 10:43 24/09/14, by comparison only 96,199 men (myself proudly included) have signed the #heforshe commitment.

These numbers are *seriously* out of whack.
