The Byte Barrier: How Algorithms Are Silencing Our Sexual Voices
March 31, 2025 • 12:00 pm ET
Join us for a thought-provoking panel discussion on the evolving landscape of algorithmic censorship and content moderation in sexuality education. As social media platforms grow in influence, automated systems have increasingly been used to regulate what content is visible online, often censoring critical, sex-positive, and LGBTQIA+-inclusive educational materials. This panel will explore the tension between protecting users from harmful content and ensuring access to accurate, inclusive sexual education. Experts will discuss the impact of algorithmic control on marginalized communities, the challenges faced by educators and activists, and potential pathways to advocate for more transparent, context-aware content moderation policies that respect users’ rights to comprehensive, safe, and inclusive sexual health resources.
