Major Social Media Platforms Fall Short in Protecting LGBTQ Users from Online Harm, According to GLAAD Report

GLAAD's annual Social Media Safety Index shows major platforms struggle to curb hate speech and harassment targeting LGBTQ people, with Twitter scoring the lowest.
While Meta, YouTube, and TikTok improved enforcement of anti-LGBTQ hate policies, their efforts remain inconsistent and inadequate, warranting oversight.
Rampant online hate and misinformation threaten the safety and well-being of LGBTQ users if left unaddressed.
