The Issue

Being an animal lover, I find it absolutely unbearable to witness the pain and fear that beautiful, innocent animals endure during agonizing hours-long livestreams of torture on platforms such as Telegram, Bilibili, Weibo, Douyin, Xiaohongshu, QQ, Baidu Tieba, X, 4Chan, Discord, Reddit, TikTok, and Potato. This horrific abuse of our beloved creatures is facilitated by the very platforms we use daily, turning a blind eye to actual torture streamed live for all to see.

These platforms hold tremendous power and responsibility within the digital world, allowing millions of users instant access to content across the globe. Nevertheless, many fail to enforce their own community guidelines when it comes to the streaming of animal cruelty, letting those who are criminally insane exploit these channels to engage in the most inhumane acts imaginable.

A shocking investigative report revealed that countless videos remaining live for hours, and some cases even archived for later viewing, receive nothing more than a slap on the wrist or no action at all. **Animal cruelty must not be tolerated in any form.** The platforms in question must take immediate action to remove all content related to the livestreaming of animal torture and enforce stronger regulations against broadcasting such content.

The solution is clear: these platforms must implement more robust content monitoring and reporting systems to detect and swiftly remove any instances of animal abuse. They should incorporate advanced AI technology and employ additional human moderators speaking local languages to expedite the process and effectively enforce their guidelines.

We also urge global animal rights organizations to step in and collaborate with these platforms to provide guidance and support in identifying and stopping these broadcasts. Legal actions must also be taken against individuals and groups found guilty of participating in or supporting such cruelty.

Join me in demanding accountability from these social media giants. Together, we can push for change and ensure that animal torture is eradicated from the digital space once and for all. Sign this petition to put pressure on these companies to adopt stricter policies and monitoring tools, and help protect innocent animals from further suffering and fear.
