An unfortunate aspect of this paper is the sourcing of some rather odd things, including debunked research about video games that came out of the late 90s. It's also mixing a lot together unrelated to online harassment and threats. I'm hoping that they can refine this, as people are going to tear this apart and ignore some of the good suggestions it has intermixed with some of the oddness. My own reactions when reading it were going back and forth a lot, so I can only imagine how parts of it are coming across to others not well connected to the issues Gamergate caused.

Essentially my fear is that while the UN has a goal of sensitizing people to this to get them to care and advocate for change, it may help further desensitize people.
