Šmotková, Veronika ; Šelleng, Dalibor (advisor) ; Hořák, Jaromír (referee)
Hate Speech in the Online Space Abstract This thesis focuses on mapping the ways of sanctioning hate speech which appears on the Internet. In the introductory chapter, the concepts of hate speech and the online environment are first explained. Next, the various means by which the Internet is a suitable venue for the dissemination of hateful rhetoric are discussed. The chapter also briefly shows the ways one can come in contact with hateful content on the Internet. The second chapter focuses on one of the key human freedoms closely related to the topic, namely freedom of expression. It draws special attention to its possible conflict with other fundamental rights and freedoms and describes how it is limited. In the third chapter of the thesis, I draw attention to the penalty of hate speech itself, with an emphasis on criminal sanctions. Therefore, the thesis describes in detail the selected criminal offences under which hate speech can be subsumed. I discuss the following: 1) Violence against a Group of People and Individuals, 2) Defamation of Nation, Race, Ethnic or other Groups of People, 3) instigation of Hatred towards a Group of People or of Suppression of their Rights and Freedoms, 4) Establishment, support and promotion of a movement aimed at suppression of human rights and freedoms, 5) Dissemination...

Comparative study of State and Citizen Perceptions on Social Media Security in the Czech Republic
Skřivánková, Andrea ; Collins, Jonathan (advisor) ; Střítecký, Vít (referee)
This diploma thesis draws attention to a highly relevant and important topic, i.e. cybersecurity on social media. The pace of technology development and trends is relentless and society often fails to react properly to these changes, or even to notice them. This carries with it the risk of harm from unawareness or carelessness. Social media became a daily part of human interaction and often a space for sharing personal information, and as these activities moved into the online world, so did crime. No one wants to experience harassment or theft, but the internet and social media provide a much greater opportunity and scope. People are at risk not only of being attacked on the street, but also from the other side of the world, and it makes catching the attacker very difficult. This thesis analyses how this problem is perceived by the state of the Czech Republic in this case (and additionally the EU), which should protect its laws and institutions, and on the other hand, by people as ordinary users of these platforms, who may find all the existing technology & regulatory measures confusing/overwhelming/nonsufficient/ etc. The thesis describes how theory differs from day-to-day practice, the most common cyber threats and the means to counter and prevent them.

Availability and accessibility of alcohol and tobacco products on the internet for adolescents
Červenková, Nikola ; Mravčík, Viktor (advisor) ; Koutská, Kateřina Olga (referee)
Background: The Czech Republic has traditionally been perceived as a country with a relatively high availability of addictive substances for minors, which is also reflected in the results of control studies. The Internet is an important market environment and medium through which so called distance selling takes place. There are legal obligations to verify age in distance selling, but the extent and application of these obligations are not sufficiently described. Aim: The aim of this master's thesis was to find out how sellers of alcoholic beverages verify the age of shoppers and whether sellers of tobacco products etc. use a computer system that clearly verifies the age of the shopper. A sub-objective was to find out what the shipping options are when an order is placed and whether there is re-verification of the shopper's age when the goods are handed over. Methodology and material: The research set consisted of 30 online e-shops offering alcohol and 30 e-shops offering tobacco products. The selection was done in a regular internet environment, using search strings. The e-shops where control purchases were made were randomly selected from the list of analysed e-shops. Results: The research shows that alcohol and tobacco sellers do not sufficiently comply with all legal obligations. Only about...

Censorship on the Internet
Postolka, Jáchym ; Rychlý, Marek (referee) ; Očenášek, Pavel (advisor)
Cenzura internetu je velmi relevantní téma moderní společnosti. Stále více se internet využívá ke kontrole přístupu k informacím a sledováním jeho uživatelů. Cílem této práce je zdokumentovat způsoby cenzury ve Spojených Arabských Emirátech a za jakým účelem je internet v této zemi cenzurován. Dále je to také prozkoumání dopadů této cenzury na přístup uživatelů k internetu, jakým způsobem cenzura internetu omezuje přístup k svobodným informacím a jak je využívána jako nástroj represe. Součástí této práce je návrh a implementace nástroje na zjištění přítomnosti cenzury a jakým způsobem je internet cenzurován. Tento nástroj je sestaven z několika testů, kde každý je zaměřen na otestování jiného způsobu cenzury. Tento nástoj lze úpravou vstupů využít pro testování cenzury i v jiných zemích, než jsou Spojené Arabské Emiráty. Nástroj nebyl schopen zjistit známky cenzury, kvůli jeho spouštění na virtuálním privátním serveru, který svým umístěním v síti obchází cenzorské prostředky dodavatelů internetového připojení, které jsou hlavním způsobem cenzury této země. Pro otestování jeho funkčnosti jako nástroje detekce a analýzy cenzury ve Spojených Arabských Emirátech, by vyžadovalo lokální uživatelský přístup k internetu.
