I would like to make everyone aware of what will be happening during Pride Month this year.
Recently, users of 4Chan created this thing called 'Operation Pridefall.' During this event, the people of 4Chan will spam graphic and sensitive content on all social media. These people will also attempt to attack and harass members and supporters of the LGBT+ Community in real life. From what I've heard, they're be mainly attacking Twitter and Instagram, but its better to stay off of all socials rather than risk watching something that may scare you.
Here are the steps you should take to be safe during this :
1. Turn off DMs. If you have friends online, try making it so that only people who've friended you can message you.
2. Avoid going outside unless absolutely necessary.
3. Avoid anyone with the numbers 88 and 1488 in their accounts, bios, usernames, etc. These are being used by the 4Chan people.
4. Do NOT open any links sent by anonymous people. They might be links to the graphic/sensitive content.
5. If you can, please avoid the internet all together. Things are going to get harsh, and we need to make sure no one gets hurt.
