No idea! It's possible, I suppose.

Not a very diverse Pie Chart is it?

India has ca. 18% of the World's population, and produces ca. 19% of online racial abuse...?

You do realised that the UK makes up 0.87% of the world population so 3% is bad? Especially give how repressed, brainwashed or ignorant a large proportion of the big players in that group are. You would struggle to find many people defending or querying the big chunks in that graph because it is no surprise given their culture and religious pressure. But we are supposed to be advanced, multi cultural and generally better than that. 3% suggests otherwise.
To prove that it is typical others races to be racist I guess....

Wouldn’t surprise me , most of the countries on that list are known to be intolerant to gay people, black people and Supporters of America and Israel .

id say sources are quite likely, there are an awful lot of prejudices out there beyond white, western europe.

Not a clue - that is the point. If this is based off of IP address then the data is not credible. But given how many UK people seem to know about VPNs for streaming and the like, there is a fair chance that some people are being included in countries other than their own. I can't imagine they are all as stupid as the Savile's bloke who presumably got the sack for posting on his own IP address with his own name.
Hard to say if it is credible or not.
Is this a slide showing insults between countries. How many insults from India are directed towards which countries? How many are internal? Be interesting to know whether this is about caste inside India or racial insults directed at other countries.
How many platforms does this cover? What was the methodology for assessing insults? Were they picking key words or measuring sentiment? Who did the research?
The pie chart at the bottom does not appear to correlate with the bar chart at the top.

It's not credible at all.
Number of racist insults? As in ALL racist insults ever? I'm assuming it's football related, but if it were credible, it'd be mentioned and highlighted.
There's absolutely no source.
Link to the study?
Name or organization of who has created the chart.
It looks like someone on Twitter has some anecdotal evidence and compiled it themselves based on Twitter users' posted locations after reading tweets and replies.

but does it have 18% of the world's online population - i very much doubt it.
