[Air-L] VIDEO: Censorship and Freedom of Expression Panel at Cambridge Disinformation Summit

[Dr. Emma Briant]

Dear Colleagues,

I am writing to share the video of a panel I organized on Censorship and
Freedom of Expression <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoCX2Xy3daI> at the
2026 Cambridge Disinformation Summit. It was an honor to discuss the
increasing threats to speech in the context of autocratization alongside
such esteemed speech defenders and democracy advocates in the beautiful
Cambridge Union, here’s the video
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoCX2Xy3daI> and the full panel included:

*Nora Benavidez <https://www.linkedin.com/in/norabenavidez/>*, Senior
Counsel and Director of Digital Justice and Civil Rights at Free Press,
leading its democracy and tech initiatives

*Jameel Jaffer <https://www.linkedin.com/in/jameel-jaffer-17648426/>*,
<https://www.linkedin.com/in/jameel-jaffer-17648426/> who directs the
Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University, which sponsors
litigation and research at the intersection of free speech and new
technology

*Jemimah Steinfeld <https://www.linkedin.com/in/jemimah-steinfeld-25ab03a/>*,
who is CEO of the freedom of expression organization Index on Censorship

*Emma L. Briant* <http://emma-briant.co.uk/>, Visiting Associate Professor
at Lucy Family Institute for Data and Society, University of Notre Dame

I hope you find the video
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xoCX2Xy3daI> interesting
and will consider sharing what I feel was an important discussion.

Best wishes,

Emma
