How IGs Censorship Policies Affect YOU (& the Sex Space)

12/18/20 • 17 min

QUICKIE: This week we're covering an important topic of censorship in social media spaces. Primarily, Instagram. With Facebook's new policies I unpack just how harmful this will be to important lines of sex work, education, and access to vital digital resources. I share the history of some of the latest digital censoring, and how it's going to have a larger impact for how we all show up for community. BUT, it's not all doom and gloom. The reality here is that there is hope in innovation, and empowerment in ownership. Tune in to get all the deets.
