Meta-owned social media platforms Facebook and WhatsApp have emerged as the top thriving playgrounds for inflictors of technology-facilitated gender-based violence (TFGBV), with the two digital sites recording 69.4 percent and 55.6 percent prevalence rates, respectively.
A fresh report published last week by the Kenya ICT Action Network (KICTANet), which is a multi-stakeholder think tank for policy and regulation, defines TFGBV as all acts of gender-based violence that are committed, abetted or aggravated, in part or fully by the use of technologies.
