If anyone knows what it means to be publicly humiliated, it's Monica Lewinsky.
In one of very few major media appearances in more than a decade, Monica Lewinsky took the TED stage on Thursday to champion online compassion. In the years since arguably the biggest political scandal of our time, Lewinsky has turned her attention to activism, namely the fight against cyberbullying and public shame.
At the age of 22, I fell in love with my boss. At the age of 24, I learned the devastating consequences," she said.
Her affair with then-president of the United States, Bill Clinton, and its aftermath, coincided with an Internet communication boom.
“This scandal was brought to you by the digital revolution," she said. Never before had information spread so quickly; never before had strangers' voices been so amplified.
