Sarita Yardi Schoenebeck is an American computer scientist at the University of Michigan, where she serves as Director of the Living Online Lab.
[5] Schoenebeck was a doctoral researcher at Georgia Tech, where she studied ways that parents could support young people's use of social media.
[9] Supported by the National Science Foundation, Schoenebeck studied how the principles of justice can play a role in reducing online harassment.
[14] She was supported by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation to investigate ways that digital platforms can reduce harms such as hate speech and harassment.
Schoenebeck proposed that this could be achieved by expanding Section 230, forcing digital platforms to stop prioritising engagement over the protection of users.
