6 Weeks Since the Dirty Dozen List …. 6 Corporations Making Improvements!

Just six weeks since the launch of our 2023 Dirty Dozen List, we have already seen victories and progress with six different corporations! Thanks to an army of grassroots advocates like YOU, progress which used to take years to achieve is now happening in a week, on average!

Here's what you've achieved so far, by taking action through the Dirty Dozen List and our corporate advocacy campaigns:

👉Kik implemented nearly all of NCOSE's recommendations to make their platform safer and protect kids

👉Discord is now testing parental controls

👉Instagram created a taskforce to investigate facilitation of child sexual abuse material

👉Reddit took steps that will help reduce access to and circulation of sexually explicit content, including image-based sexual abuse and child sexual abuse material

👉Apple announced it will automatically blur nudity for kids 12 and under, and will provide an option for teens/adults to blur nudity as well

👉Snapchat wrote NCOSE and promised they are making changes

Survivors to Seek Review from the Supreme Court on Twitter Child Sexual Abuse Material Case

Recently, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals reaffirmed its dismissal of the Twitter child sexual abuse material case, brought by the NCOSE Law Center and the Haba Law Firm on behalf of two survivors who were exploited on Twitter as minors.

In this case, Twitter reviewed obvious child sex abuse material (“CSAM", also known as child pornography). and told one of the children victimized in the CSAM that it would not remove it. As a result of Twitter’s callousness, CSAM of two 13-year-old boys spread like wildfire on Twitter.

We will continue to seek justice and accountability on the survivors' behalf by seeking review from the United States Supreme Court.

Commentary: Sex trade survivors need protection; sex buyers need to stop

BY LOIS GALGAY RECKITT | SPECIAL TO THE PRESS HERALD

Data unambiguously show the majority of those sold in prostitution come from marginalized communities and experience long-term trauma, while their buyers are disproportionately white, economically privileged men. It’s further compounded when those sold – and not their exploiters – are punished and criminalized.

That’s precisely why I introduced L.D. 1435 – An Act to Reduce Commercial Sexual Exploitation – to ensure exploited people receive services rather than criminal penalties, and that abusers are held accountable for the destructive harm they cause.
