  1. The problem of online harms lies with the underlying business models of social media platforms. Digital ID age checks do nothing to change that. We need to disrupt the advertising-driven business models built on surveillance, profiling and maximising engagement. Sign our petition #BreakBigTech ⬇️

  3. The UK government is stuck treating the symptoms, not the root cause of online harms. Nothing changes until we break the business model that drives hate and extremism; the harvesting of our data to maximise engagement and fuel advertising. It's time to #BreakBigTech.

  4. Re: Agenda for meeting with social media bosses.

    ✅️ Uphold data protection to tackle targeted advertising.

    ✅️ Make algorithms transparent and give users control over them.

    ✅️ Introduce social media switching rights like banking and mobile phones, so we can change platforms without losing networks.

  6. The UK Government should take note. Age ID checks for Internet access won't solve online harms. It does nothing to tackle their structural causes: advertising-driven business models built on surveillance, profiling and maximising engagement. All it does is threaten privacy. We must #BreakBigTech.

  7. Our report details how we can improve the online environment by empowering users.

    Pursuing online safety in ways that preserve and even strengthen the dominance of Big Tech is a self-defeating mission.

    We need to break these monopolies and push for competition through interoperability.

  8. Social media giants have pushed engagement-driven designs to keep us on their platforms, so they can harvest our data for advertising revenues.

    The landmark verdict against Meta and Google is a crucial step in acknowledging that Big Tech's harmful business models are creating toxic online spaces.

  10. ORG calls on the UK Government to:

    ✅️ Uphold data protection law to tackle targeted advertising that fuel the attention economy and feed online hate.

    ✅️ Compel social media companies to be transparent about algorithms and give users control over them.

    ✅️ Introduce social media switching rights similar to banking and mobile phones, so we can change platforms without losing networks.

  12. An LA Court's ruling on Meta and Google exposes the real causes of online harms.

    Engagement-driven design and data-fuelled advertising business models put people at risk.

    Yet the UK government's approach to online safety has focussed on keeping kids out and locking adults in to toxic platforms.

  16. We must pull online harms out by the roots, not simply prune them. To #BreakBigTech, we must: 🟢 Enforce data protection to stop targeted ads. 🟢 Make algorithms transparent and give us control over them. 🟢 Let us take our followers and data with us when we leave a platform.

  17. The government is stuck treating the symptoms, not the cause of online harms. We don’t need to ban social media or age gate the Internet. It risks pushing children into unregulated spaces and does nothing to challenge surveillance capitalism, where Big Tech profits at our expense. #BreakBigTech

  18. Measures to stop online harms just rearrange the deckchairs. To get serious about it, we must attack how social media platforms do business. Using our data to keep us online with targeted ads and 'For You' algorithms is the engine of hate and extremism. We must #BreakBigTech. Sign our petition ⬇️

  22. 🚨 BigTech had the technology to protect your data. They refused.
    🔥 Why? Because real privacy would destroy their business model.

    🔹 They chose surveillance. We built sovereignty.
    🔹 No backdoos. No control. No compromises.

  24. 📢 BigTech built walls. We break them.
    🔥 Decentralized. Secure. Untouchable.
    💡 BigTech refused to build a world with 100% privacy & security – because it would end their business model.
    💥 If we don’t act now, their control will be irreversible.

    🚀 This is already bigger than they expected – and growing every day.

  29. @nixCraft 💡 GBS Media Response:

    Big Tech isn’t just dominating markets—it’s controlling speech and shaping narratives. 🚨

    They suppress competition, throttle independent creators, and dictate what the public sees. Free speech suffers when a few companies hold all the power.

    The future belongs to independent voices and decentralized platforms. It’s time to reclaim the internet for everyone—not just Silicon Valley. 💪
