Tech companies need to step up. Digital and social media platforms, online forums and content sites should take the abuse of human bodies at least as seriously as copyright infringements.
They should actively moderate content and immediately remove harmful and abusive images without requiring legal processes. They should make reporting easy and allow people to better control who can see, share and comment on their content.
Tech companies need to create innovative solutions to prevent digital violence and improve online safety. Tech companies must be more responsive to victims seeking help in taking down posts that violate their rights and privacy and address perpetrators appropriately.
