The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The Government's Online Safety Bill is currently going through Parliament. The Bill will require social media companies to clearly set out, and consistently enforce, their policies on how they will deal with complaints from users who have had content removed or have had their accounts blocked or suspended, and how they will deal with content which they reasonably consider to be harmful or illegal.
