Legislate against online censorship of keywords related to women's health/bodies

Petition Details

Many legitimate discussions and educational content on women’s bodies and health are flagged as explicit or removed by major tech platforms. This widespread censorship limits access to vital information, harms businesses, and blocks products and services for women.

Additional Information

We want the Government to make it illegal for tech companies to censor content about women’s health and bodies. They should set clear rules separating explicit material from legitimate health information, as well as create an independent panel to review censorship complaints, with the power to penalise discriminatory censorship. Algorithms can control what is restricted or amplified. We think that the censorship of words related to women's health amounts to digital discrimination and must be stopped by law.

If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
