The internet has long preyed on women, allowing for cyber harassment that spreads from the web into the intimate corners of their personal lives. The brave women targeted by harassment in Netizens are fighting against the unchecked misogyny of the internet—whether it's Anita Sarkeesian confronting gamer culture with their theatening behavior their creations enable or Carrie Goldberg's legal crusade to make digital abuse and revenge porn prosecutable by law, they're our frontline warriors fighting for civil liberties online in this sobering and eye-opening documentary.
