Kim Kardashian freezes Facebook, Instagram accounts.

 

Kim Kardashian West and other celebrities are taking part in a 24-hour "freeze" of their Facebook and Instagram accounts on Wednesday in support of the #StopHateForProfit campaign that seeks to hold social media giants accountable for the spread of hate speech and misinformation on their platforms.

"I can't sit by and stay silent while these platforms continue to allow the spreading of hate, propaganda and misinformation," Kardashian West wrote on her social media accounts on Tuesday. "Misinformation shared on social media has a serious impact on our elections and undermines our democracy. Please join me tomorrow when I will be 'freezing' my Instagram and FB account to tell Facebook to #StopHateForProfit."

Kardashian West - a reality television celebrity in the United States and across the globe - wields considerable clout on both platforms, with 188 million followers on Instagram and more than 30 million on Facebook.
