We've spoken about tech platforms failing to police their content several times before, but every so often we like to highlight successful examples.

Back at the start of lockdown, we spoke about the amazing work being done at Pinterest to combat anti-vaxx misinformation. But it's since been revealed that the person spearheading all that work - Ifeoma Ozoma - was being underpaid and mistreated to the point that she was forced out of the company.

It is reasonable to talk about the complexity of online content and argue about regulatory oversight, but all too often we ignore the culture inside these companies.

Toxic culture in Big Tech companies is a genuine inhibitor to solving these problems and we need to pay attention to it because they are the only organisations that are able to solve it.
