Now, platforms are protecting queer users online by updating their policies to ban any content surrounding the harmful practice, which attempts to change someone's sexual orientation or gender identity.
One platform, Discord, has expanded its Hateful Conduct Policy to prevent users from misgendering and deadnaming. In February 2022, TikTok also updated its Community Guidelines to prevent content which supports or promotes conversion therapy explicitly.
But not all platforms are on the same page. YouTube still does not ban such content in its Hate Speech Policy, while X (formerly Twitter), has removed policies for marginalized communities against misinformation.
