WASHINGTON D.C. (August 14, 2024) – Earlier this month, the U.S. House of
Representatives and U.S. Senate Appropriations Committee passed their Fiscal Year 2025 bills.

influence discretionary programs. The bills are led by the U.S. House and U.S. Senate

partnership with our Congressional champions on the U.S. House and U.S. Senate

Shaheen, Scott Call on Big Tech CEOs to Adopt Programs Cracking Down on the Spread of Non-Consensual Intimate Imagery on Online Platforms.

(Washington, DC) – U.S. Senators Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH), Chair of the U.S. Senate Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science and Related Agencies, and Rick Scott (R-FL) are sending letters to multiple Big Tech CEOs urging them to participate in two voluntary programs to locate and take down non-consensual intimate imagery (NII) on online platforms. The bipartisan group of Senators sent letters to the CEOs of X, Alphabet, Amazon, Match, Zoom, Pinterest, Discord, OpenAI, Twitch, Microsoft and Patreon requesting written confirmation that they intend to adopt the Take It Down and Stop NCII programs, which allow online users to remove explicit images of themselves from digital platforms. The increasing spread of NII remains a dangerous and concerning trend in a rapidly evolving digital world. Last year, the Revenge Porn Helpline reported an alarming 106 percent increase in total reports received compared to the previous year, 34 percent of which represented cases of sextortion.

In part, the Senators wrote: “With one post, NII shared online has the opportunity to ruin the life of an individual, often times young women and girls, and the presence of such on your platform cannot be taken lightly.

The Warriors💙support @parishilton and survivors of the Troubled Teen Industry that are working hard to stop institutional child abuse. An estimated 120,000 to 200,000 of our nation’s most vulnerable youth are pipelined into youth residential programs (colloquially referred to as the Troubled Teen Industry)each year by state child welfare and juvenile justice systems, mental health providers, federal agencies, school districts’ individualized education programs and by parents. These programs, including but not limited to boot camps, wilderness programs, therapeutic boarding schools, residential treatment facilities, or group homes, cause harm at a higher rate to all vulnerable youth. The Troubled Teen Industry receives an estimated $23 billion dollars of public funds annually to “treat” the behavioral and psychological needs of vulnerable youth yet there are systemic reports of youth experiencing physical, emotional and sexual abuse, including but not limited to prolonged solitary confinement, physical, chemical and mechanical restraints, food and sleep, deprivation, lack of access to the restroom or personal hygiene, “attack therapy”, forced labor, medical neglect and being denied a free public education. Public records and news reports have documented more than 350 preventable child deaths in these programs. It is time to put an end to this abuse once and for all. Learn more. Get involved by signing the petition. Let’s work together to help, not harm kids. Join us.
