The purpose of NDAs should never be to protect Big Tech from being held accountable for racist, sexist and other discriminatory behavior. That's why PEN America stands behind @IfeomaOzoma and the Silenced No More Act, signed into CA law last month. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/24/technology/pinterest-whistle-blower-ifeoma-ozoma.html
Developed in close collaboration with @Code4Africa and @PesaCheck, @PENamerica’s new French-language Online Harassment Manual serves writers and journalists facing online abuse across the francophone world. Please share the Manual #FightOnlineAbuseNow https://onlineharassmentfieldmanual.pen.org/
