It’s everyone’s favorite online video communication tool these days. We cannot count the times we attended Zoom-based workshops in the last months, organized Zoom-based lectures or spoke at Zoom-based events. Apart from latent data protection concerns (taken seriously in Berlin<\/a>, less seriously in Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg<\/a>), which is usually tries to allay by pointing to its GDPR compliance<\/a>, Zoom has managed to weather the current discussion on (and growing dissatisfaction with) private content governance rather well \u2013 cases when it bowed to Chinese pressure<\/a> to close down accounts of US-based Zoom meetings related to the Tiananmen massacre notwithstanding. \u00a0While Facebook and Twitter, and intermittently TikTok, have been heavily criticized for their approach to fighting online hate speech, Covid-19-related disinformation and untruth about elections, Zoom has escaped scrutiny. It is, after all, not a social network. This is true, but perhaps this honeymoon is over.<\/p>\n

Terrorism-Promotion as the No-Go of Content Governance<\/h2>\n

Last week, Zoom informed<\/a> San Francisco State University that the company\u2019s service may not be used for holding an event titled \u201cWho\u2019s Narratives? Gender, Justice and Resistance: a conversation with Leila Khaled<\/a>\u201d. Khaled is a member of the \u201cPopular Front for the Liberation of Palestine\u201d (PFLP), a far-left Palestinian organization engaged in political as well as armed opposition against Israel that is listed as terror organization both in the US<\/a> and in the EU<\/a>. She has become an icon for pro-Palestinian and far-left political fractions across the globe by committing two plane hijackings (1969\/1970), after both of which she was set free (in exchange for hostages taken in further hijackings by the PFLP). She has held public talks in numerous countries.<\/p>\n

During these trips, she has sometimes been refused entry, leading to her holding talks via video call<\/a> instead. This fallback strategy might just have become more difficult. Zoom decided on Wednesday that \u201cIn light of the speaker\u2019s reported affiliation or membership in a U.S. designated foreign terrorist organization, and SFSU\u2019s inability to confirm otherwise, we determined the meeting is in violation of Zoom\u2019s Terms of Service and told SFSU they may not use Zoom for this particular event<\/em>“. And it was not just Zoom: According to participants, Facebook took down the event page<\/a> and YouTube, which the University turned to after Zooms refusal, stopped the livestream after Khaled started talking<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Zoom\u2019s decision was preceded by protests at its headquarters in San Jose, California and a letter<\/a> addressed to Zoom by \u201cThe Lawfare Project\u201d, a human rights organization with a mission to \u201cprotect the civil and human rights of the Jewish people worldwide<\/a>\u201d. This letter claims that Khaled\u2019s \u201cparticipation in this webinar and Zoom\u2019s provision of its platform to communicate directly to U.S. college students (and others) may give rise to violations of 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 2339B\u201d. <\/em>Pointing toward the U.S. Supreme Court decision in the case Holder v. Humanitarian Law<\/em> Project<\/em><\/a>, the Lawfare Project claimed that Zoom\u2019s video conference constitutes a \u201cservice\u201d under 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 2339B. The organization further argued that due to the information contained in the letter, Zoom would now be providing this service \u201cknowingly\u201d as for the purposes of \u00a7 2339B and therefore risk criminal liability.<\/p>\n

Was this accurate and Zoom\u2019s possible (if implicit) fear of criminal liability under U.S. antiterrorism law justified?<\/h2>\n

\u00a7 2339B forbids to \u201cknowingly provide material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization<\/em>\u201d. The term \u201cmaterial support or resources<\/em>\u201d is, albeit only broadly, defined in 18 U.S.C. \u00a7 2339A as \u201cAny property, tangible or intangible, or service, including (..) financial services, lodging, training, expert advice or assistance, safehouses, (..)<\/em>\u201d. As pointed out by other researchers<\/a> in 2019, the U.S. government has to date not taken the position that allowing a designated foreign terrorist organization to use a free and freely available online platform falls under \u201cproviding material support\u201d. Above that, the Supreme Court stated in Holder v. Humanitarian Law<\/em> that \u201cThe statute reaches only material support coordinated with or under the direction of a designated foreign terrorist organization<\/em>\u201d (p.26).<\/p>\n

As Zoom would have acted neither in coordination with nor under the direction of the PFLP, it seems to us that Zoom did not have to fear a criminal liability under U.S. Antiterrorism law, had it allowed the event to be carried out via its video call. This case might therefore also serve as an example for the chilling effect overly broad antiterrorism laws can develop and the consequences such a constellation has when combined with private rulemaking.<\/p>\n

Did the event violate Zoom\u2019s Terms of Service?<\/h2>\n

Zoom seems to have based its decision solely on Khaleds \u201creported affiliation or membership in a U.S. designated foreign terrorist organization\u201d. <\/em>Did the Terms of Service<\/a> give Zoom the right to cancel the event for this reason? The Terms mention terrorism in Section 3. d. \u201cProhibited Use\u201d (ix), essentially stating that the user agrees not to use, or to permit any other end user to use, the services in violation of any Zoom policy or in a manner that violates applicable law, including anti-terrorism laws and regulations. However, as we have seen before, a violation of the law was not imminent (neither by Zoom itself nor by San Francisco State University). With its decision to cancel the event, Zoom therefore likely went beyond its own terms of use.<\/p>\n

How would this be solved in Germany?<\/h2>\n

In Germany, support for terrorism is, obviously, also prohibited. However, a much narrower corridor of interactions is penalized than in the U.S.: There is no general clause that criminalizes virtually all kinds of interactions with a terrorist organization. Next to the preparation of a \u201cserious act of violent subversion\u201d(\u00a789a\u00a0StGB), the establishment of relations with the intent to commit such an act (\u00a789b StGB) and financing terrorism (\u00a789c StGB), it is prohibited to provide access to instructions on how to commit such an act (\u00a789c StGB). Interestingly, this clause covering \u201cterror manuals\u201d is generally not applicable if the instruction is provided only in a live feed such as in Zoom, because \u00a7 89c StGB refers to an out-of-date definition of \u201cwritings\u201d (Schriften) in \u00a7\u00a011\u00a0(3)\u00a0StGB. This definition requires an \u201cembodiment of a certain duration\u201d (See BeckOK\/Valerius \u00a7 11 StGB at 68; M\u00fcKo\/Radtke \u00a7 11 StGB at 172 and the current government draft<\/a> for a modernization, replacing the list of carrier mediums with the generic term \u201ccontent\u201d, all in German). Due to the comparably limited scope of the offences, a criminal liability of a content provider such as Zoom under antiterrorism law will remain very unlikely in Germany, even after the criminal code has been adapted to the supposed novelty of livestreams.<\/p>\n

(How) Has Zoom dealt with other content moderation issues?<\/h2>\n

This recent development is not the first step Zoom is taking towards content moderation: In June, as we\u2019ve mentioned, Zoom closed the account<\/a> of a group of prominent U.S.-based Chinese activists, who held a Zoom event in order to commemorate the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square Massacre. Zoom based its decision on an alleged violation of \u201clocal\u201d (Chinese) law, even though the organizers of the event were in the US. After numerous complaints, Zoom noticed that, too, and released a statement<\/a> saying the accounts had been reinstated because the users were not based in China. Furthermore, Zoom said it discovered a need for a capability to block meeting participants by country in order to comply with local law, promising to limit the impacts of Chinese governments requests to users within mainland China. This is not very different from the geolocation-based enforcement by major platforms of, for example, Germany\u2019s laws regarding holocaust denial. Zoom further promised to improve the \u201cglobal policy to respond to these types of requests\u201d, which is supposed to be outlined as part of their transparency report later this year.<\/p>\n

Should Zoom engage in content governance?<\/h2>\n

It seems with the growing popularity, a certain level of content \u201cmoderation\u201d by Zoom is unavoidable. The live character of the communication on Zoom might keep the scale of this endeavor relatively manageable in comparison to the challenges faced by Facebook, Twitter or Google. On the other hand, the new, pandemic-induced importance of digital face-to-face communication provided by companies like Zoom underscores the need for fair, transparent and rights-sensitive content moderation standards for these services.<\/p>\n

Although there seems to be a learning curve at Zoom regarding of these questions, this curve remains significantly flatter than Zoom\u2019s growth rates. As of now, the company is lagging behind the discourse on human rights and internet governance. The challenge in which lies not in the technicalities of geo-blocking a service into compliance with different national legal regimes. The actual challenge is to firmly anchor corporate policies in international standards, to regularly assess human rights impacts, to open up to external monitoring and, possibly, to join a multistakeholder platform such as the Global Network Initiative<\/a>. All of these measures would also contribute to insulating the company against contradictory or human rights-abusing national demands.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/h2>\n

Facebook and Twitter, TikTok and YouTube, have been dealing with questions of content moderation for a long time. Zoom has up to now gotten a free pass. But perhaps this case in San Francisco is the harbinger of a time when Zoom events will be more closely monitored. If this holds true, one can only hope Zoom\u2019s moderation standards catch up with its human rights responsibilities.<\/p>\n

On the website of the San Francisco State University Professor co-organizing the debate, a linked post<\/a> said that the event would go on: \u201eThe Zoom registration page continues to function\u201c. So it seemed that Zoom\u2019s ban was not total. The Facebook user went on to state: \u201eThere are a wide range of legal and political issues involved, especially given the Zoomification of higher education.\u201c This is undoubtedly true. But the question of how to govern online meetings, and which rules to apply, does not only concern higher education, but society as a whole.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
