The Gamification of Terrorism | Julia Ebner | TEDxLondonBusinessSchool

Most of us "gamify" our daily lives, whether consciously or unconsciously, to make situations less boring, less intimidating, or simply more fun. However, have you ever thought how dangerous it could be if terrorists and extremists start to use this gamification technique to their advantage? Julia Ebner, author of “Going Dark: The Secret Social Lives of Extremists”, will report her undercover experience in 12 extremist groups and ring the alarm bell for us about a new form of inspirational terrorism - gamified terrorism. Julia Ebner is the author of the bestselling books Going Dark: The Secret Social Lives of Extremists and The Rage: The Vicious Circle of Islamist and Far-Right Extremism. She is also a Senior Research Fellow at the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, where she leads projects on online radicalisation, disinformation and hate speech. Julia has acted as a consultant for the UN, NATO, and the World Bank. Her journalism has appeared in the Guardian, Independent, Prospect and Newsweek, and she was a key contributor to a documentary for ITV on militant responses to Brexit, and a Radio 4 piece on women in the far right. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
