End Hate on the Internet

Published by Jody Ortiz on Jan 01, 2010
Target: Facebook, Topix, Myspace, Youtube, Twitter, and other social networking Web sites and forums
Region: GLOBAL
Background (Preamble):
The Internet and social networking Web sites are being abused and used to form hate groups. People like the creator of this petition are being stalked, harassed, and cyber bullied and the hate grows due to the ease of access of the Internet and the ability to make claims about someone and threaten them by the use of false identities.

Join us in our mission to put an end to the abuse of the Internet and in asking Web sites to put more safeguards in place to control this growing epidemic. Your information will not be made public and will only be shared with the Web sites that are targeted in the petition.
Petition:
We, the undersigned, respectfully request that your Web site and/or forum take serious, immediate actions to control the abuse of your service in the attempt to harass, cyber bully, stalk, threaten, and defame individuals or groups.

We ask that you take requests to look into certain user accounts and postings as serious requests and that you seek the proper authorities if a suspected hate group is using your service for recruitment purposes.

We ask that any and all postings, videos, pictures, or private conversations that involve harassment, cyber bullying, threats, or hate be taken seriously and dealt with in an appropriate manner and not ignored.

Thank you for your immediate attention to this matter.
