8chan has been a crucial platform for the growth of the alt right, and it’s allowed them to radicalize people in a way that’s horrifyingly scaleable. It’s a thriving ecosystem of toxicity and hate and it needs money to survive. Https://twitter.com/justinhendrix/status/1127938907495194624 …
Right now, it’s generating revenue from Amazon affiliate fees, and Amazon is looking the other way. We’ve seen large tech companies demonetize platforms that enable the growth of hate groups before, and Amazon needs to demonetize 8chan, now.http://bit.ly/30kyNwz
But relying on large tech companies to do this of their own volition can’t be our only strategy. We need a strong policy response. We have to hold companies that enable these platforms accountable and give them incentives to be good citizens on this issue.
I'm developing a set of proposals that will do that, and if you’ve been affected by these issues, I want to hear from you. I was the subject of targeted harassment by Gamergaters and I know how these things affect people’s lives.
I also want to hear from you if you’re working on the problem yourself and want to collaborate. We can solve this problem together, and I’m running for Congress because i think robust policy is a big part of the solution.
And we need your support to do this. I’m not taking corporate PAC money, so am not beholden to the large companies we’re talking about. You can donate $5 here and it will be utilized and appreciated: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/brianna-wu-for-congress?refcode=cyber …
And yet, put their affiliates links in a email and they’ll shut you down before you can blink.
