Our Work:
Turning Up the Heat on Big Tech

At Heat Initiative, we believe Big Tech’s inaction is due in part to a lack of pressure. That’s why we're targeting companies with demonstrated negligence around child sexual abuse.

Our Current Targets

Apple

Apple has long ignored the child sexual abuse material stored and shared on its platforms and remains notably absent from child safety circles.

Meta

Meta walked back their commitment to trust & safety, while children still face harms like sextortion and grooming across their platforms.

Coming Soon

Snap

Our sights are set on Snap, watch this space and follow us on Instagram to get the latest updates on our demands of the platform.

Who's next?

We’re holding all of Big Tech accountable. Sign up to receive emails and be the first to know about our latest targets.

Research That Drives Demands

A digital world built without accountability puts all children at risk. That’s why we invest in original research—to expose where tech company inaction is causing the greatest harm to child safety. Our findings power our advocacy, sharpen our demands, and help drive systemic change across the tech industry.

Ignite Legal Action

We’re putting the pressure on Big Tech to take action on child safety in more ways than one. Our Ignite Legal action is catalyzing impact litigation to hold technology companies accountable for their duty to prevent and address the sexual exploitation of children on their platforms.
