Melissa King argues for more content moderation and regulation of the Internet in “Better Online Living through Content Moderation”. She also argues that people who oppose this argument create a culture that makes it the victim’s fault if they encounter something they don’t like. Because of this content control could help limit potential PTSD attacks and that this helps.

In her first paragraph she goes in-depth with computer psychology hence the name. She addresses exposure therapy, a therapy that combat severe anxiety through gradual and controlled exposure to its source. She says that not only is this wrong but in many times it magnifies the PTSD itself.

Her next paragraph discusses blocklists and how people fight it claiming that they are being defamed. She argues that basically by subjecting another person through the internet and blocking abusers actually fails to “differentiate between the aggressor and their targets.”

Lastly, she mentions sexism by saying that women are considered fair game in certain “male dominated” areas and it usually brings about severe and chronic abuse that can easily cause PTSD. According the King, this abuse is so well-documented and pervasive that the UN recently hosted an event where women including Zoe Quinn (video game developer, and co-founder of Crash Override) and Anita Sarkeesian (creator of the youtube channel “Feminist Frequency,” and the video series “Tropes vs Women in Video Games”) were able to share details of the abuse that they have personally received”. However because of criticism of content control these women are stuck in a corner.

She concludes by say that blocking is someone’s personal decision and that people should be allowed to set their own boundaries.
