Mission

HONR Network is dedicated to making the internet a safer, more inclusive place for all. After his son Noah was murdered during the Sandy Hook School massacre, Lenny Pozner and his family became the target of an unrelenting campaign of harassment and abuse by conspiracy theorists who used social media to torment, hunt, and abuse the family. The initial goal of the HONR Network was to end the harassment and intentional torment, not only of Pozner and his family, but of survivors and the families of victims of all mass casualty incidents and high-profile crimes, who suffered additional anguish after being targeted by online. The mission has evolved further to provide guidance and a network of support for all affected by online harassment, to educate, and to advocate for policy changes.

What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

The organization began as an advocate for the survivors and the victims of mass casualty, and highly publicized, violent incidents, who were revictimized online by conspiracy theorists. More recently, HONR's mission has expanded to assist all victims of online hate and harassment and it has been involved in bringing about significant policy changes at Facebook, WordPress YouTube, and other major online platforms.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

The HONR Network's initial aims were to protect survivors and the families of victims of mass casualty events like Sandy Hook, who were being harassed, defamed, tormented, threatened, and intimidated online by hoaxers and hate groups. By using a multitude of methods of reporting harassing content, HONR has become effective at removing online hate. HONR has also assisted social media platforms in creating policies designed to better protect victims of mass casualty and highly publicized, violent incidents. HONR's mission has further expanded to assist all victims of online hate and harassment, regardless of the source and motivation

The HONR network has as many as 300 volunteers working to remove defamatory and harassing content from the internet.[13] While all states have anti-harassment laws, not all states equate online stalking, harassment, and defamation with traditional offline offenses. This has meant that for many victims, going to the police or filing a civil suit is ineffective in the removal of harassing content online.[4] HONR volunteers flag and report harassing videos, images, and content en masse to social media platforms and online service providers, often citing invasion of privacy, bullying, hate speech, and copyright infringement.[
