美国国防部长彼得·赫格塞斯宣布将于12月3日对前美陆军少校尼达尔·哈桑进行军事处决,并将其直播在线1。哈桑在2009年的韦恩堡枪击事件中杀害13人、伤害数十人1。这将是美国二战后首次由军事行刑队进行的处决,也是美国历史上首次直播处决1。
澳大利亚两大政党因是否应阻止该直播在国内平台传播而陷入争议。绿党议员莎拉·汉森-杨表示这一计划"极其令人震惊和野蛮"1,并要求屏蔽相关内容并对平台罚款1。反对党发言人蒂姆·威尔逊则表达了不同角度的关切,认为"这可能构成对互联网的审查禁令"1。美国国土安全部长马克韦恩·穆林表示不存在升高的激进化风险1。
The U.S. Department of Defense has announced plans to execute former Army Major Nidal Hassan on December 3rd, with the execution to be broadcast online.1 Hassan was responsible for the 2009 Fort Hood shooting, in which he killed 13 people and wounded dozens more.1 This would mark the first military firing squad execution in the United States since World War II and the first execution ever to be livestreamed in American history.1
The announcement has triggered significant controversy in Australia, with political divisions over whether the country should take action to block the broadcast.1 The Australian Greens have called for the content to be censored and demanded financial penalties against platforms carrying the livestream, with Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young describing the execution plan as "absolutely shocking and barbaric."1 Both the opposition and government have raised concerns about censorship and potential interference in American internal affairs, with Opposition spokesperson Tim Wilson warning that such action "could constitute a censorship ban on the internet."1 U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Mark Wayne Mullin has stated there is no elevated risk of radicalization from the execution.1 For context, Australia's last legal execution was the 1967 hanging of Ronald Ryan in Victoria.1
