And the conference South by Southwest Interactive has apologized for its decision to cancel two panels on gaming and sexual harassment, citing “numerous threats of on-site violence related to this programming.” The cancellations caused an uproar. Media outlets BuzzFeed and Vox threatened to pull out of the conference, and feminists launched a petition, saying, “by yielding to threats of violence, you are further exposing us to it.” On Friday, South by Southwest apologized and said it would hold a day-long summit on online harassment.
