LGBTQ+ Pride month coincides with rising violence, harassment, and legislative actions against LGBTQ+ rights, furthering the need for safe online spaces. Online platforms are contributing to the issue by censoring pro-LGBTQ+ content, compelling individuals to use VPNs to protect their identities from potential harassment or danger. This Pride month, initiatives are launched to help individuals navigate privacy in sharing their identities online, particularly through guidance during digital interactions. The campaign seeks to foster safer online communication, allowing users to maintain control over their personal narratives and privacy choices.
This year, like almost all years before, LGBTQ+ Pride month is taking place at a time of burgeoning violence, harassment, and criticism.
Online platforms are also complicit in this pervasive ecosystem by censoring pro-LGBTQ+ speech, forcing LGBTQ+ individuals to self-censor or turn to VPNs.
