Tell Big Tech to turn off the Hate

Stand up to the big tech companies, and call on them to turn off their toxic recommender system - which drives hate content into people’s feeds without us looking for it.


Why is this important?

Social media giants are making huge profits from fuelling hate on their platforms, which all contributed to the division and destruction we saw on the streets.

240 groups and organisations across the UK and Ireland are demanding our political leaders act to make companies like Facebook and Twitter shut off the recommender system. This would stop extreme content spreading like wildfire across social media, and seriously hinder extremists ability to quickly whip up the disinformation that fed into last weeks’ violence.
