#34 - The Accidental Outing of Rwanda's Most Powerful Troll

Monday, August 18, 2014 - 02:00 AM

Transcript

Steve Terrill is a journalist who works in Rwanda. Or at least he worked in Rwanda, until he accidentally got the office of Rwanda's president Paul Kagame to implicate itself in a long-running online harassment campaign. Alex talks to Steve about inadvertently exposing the Rwandan government's most prolific troll, and being banned from the country as a result.
