#UK Govt must move away from #toxic social media

Sites like Facebook, Instagram & YouTube track & profile users to target advertising towards them

This fuels online #harm by pushing more & more #extreme content to users

Yet these sites are a primary way government departments share public information

We shouldn’t be forced to use toxic platforms to get #public #information

Tell your MP: Government must move away from toxic social media platforms

What’s going on? Tell your MP to support the 'Public sector communications, decentralised platforms and local journalism' EDM (Early Day Motion) 411, tabled by Siân Berry MP. No member of the public should be required to hold an account with a single commercial platform (X, Facebook, etc.) in order to receive public information.
