CEASE UK

We’re leaving X (Twitter). Throughout December, we’ll be transitioning our work onto safer and fairer platforms. Follow us on Instagram and LinkedIn to stay connected as we begin this move. See the thread/comments for why we’re taking this step.

This is your final chance to follow CEASE on Instagram and LinkedIn before we close this account. Join us there for all future updates. Leaving X is an ethical choice. We can’t remain on a platform that seems designed to amplify and reward bullying and misogyny.

We’ll complete our move off X in January. Make sure you’re following us on Instagram or LinkedIn to stay connected in 2026.

Thank you for supporting CEASE this year. As we prepare to leave X, we appreciate and champion everyone who continues to stand with us. The rise in misogyny, abuse, and disinformation makes it impossible for CEASE to stay here ethically – to stay feel likes collusion.

We’ll be winding down our presence on X in January. Follow us on Instagram and LinkedIn so you don’t miss any updates as we move.

Our mission continues: exposing the industries that fuel sexual exploitation and abuse, and fighting for stronger protections. Our followers deserve respect and safety. X’s culture of harassment, disinformation, and abuse is exactly why we’re moving.

As X spirals downwards, we’re moving to platforms which allow for safer, fairer, respectful conversations.

Evidence of widespread abuse on X has continued to accumulate – but in response Musk chose to radically downsize the teams responsible for tackling it.

X is no longer safe enough for the difficult conversations and work of tackling sexual exploitation and abuse.

For deeper context on how platform leadership shapes online harm, this piece is essential reading. Musk’s words matter - and they influence the culture that enables misogyny to thrive on X. Read more here: linkedin.com/posts/elly-han…

This isn’t happening in isolation. Researchers, advocates, and frontline organisations have been raising alarms for years about how X’s policies enable coordinated harassment and hate. The problem isn’t just individual users - it’s a system that rewards harm for engagement.

We’ve watched abuse directed at other organisations go completely unsanctioned. When a platform refuses to act - even when the harassment is targeted, repeated, and gendered - it sends a message that women’s safety is optional.

We know no platform is perfect. But X stands apart in how openly it tolerates and amplifies misogyny, abuse, and disinformation. The scale and normalisation of harm here is unlike anything we experience elsewhere.
