Big tech has shown consistently that they are unwilling to remove the child sexual abuse material and human trafficking from their platforms at scale. So, much as we have seen in times past, it takes brave survivors stepping forward to create change.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJohn Doe is that survivor in this case,\u201d the advocate asserted. \u201cHis bravery will have a positive impact on the Internet forever.
