Squarespace and Domestic Terrorism in Charlottesville: The Responsibility of Private Companies to Respond
內容大綱
This case follows the decision-making of Connie Ovalspot, fictional head of human resources at Squarespace. Ovalspot is being called on to advise the CEO and board members on how to address white supremacy on the company's platform following a domestic terror attack in Charlottesville, Virginia, in August 2017. After the event, employees reached out to Squarespace executives to protest the existence of extremist and hate-related groups on the company's platform. They asserted that Squarespace had a responsibility to remove these profiles. Ovalspot is tasked with determining the most appropriate and prudent course of action, including drafting a corporate response to the Charlottesville tragedy. This case examines the intersection of a firm's responsibility to its strategy, employees, customers, and values, viewed through both a legal and social lens.
