The Issue

I was groomed multiple times and told to kill myself on Twitter and Discord just for trying to start conversations. These platforms are proving to be havens for pedophiles and those who prey on vulnerable individuals. Every day, countless users, especially younger ones, encounter harmful and damaging situations like mine.

It's no secret that Twitter and Discord have been criticized for not doing enough to regulate their platforms and protect users from predators. Reports indicate that both platforms are frequently used by individuals with malicious intents, exploiting their flexible communication systems to hunt for victims. According to numerous studies, the lack of stringent verification and monitoring on these platforms allows pedophiles to operate unchecked.

Moreover, cyberbullying and mental health issues like mine that stem from interactions on these platforms are alarmingly common. Statistics reveal that a significant number of young people who use these services face harassment, leading to severe emotional and psychological distress, including depression and suicidal thoughts.

Our goal is to gain the attention of the creators of Twitter and Discord until they implement substantial changes that guarantee better monitoring, stronger age verification processes, and speedy removal of offending content. Without these essential changes, users remain exposed to significant harm. 

Help protect vulnerable users from exploitation and abuse. Sign and share this petition to urge authorities to take immediate action against platforms that fail to ensure user safety.
