Indiegogo,Request Movies the crowdfunding startup popular with filmmakers and other creatives, is banning anti-vaxxers from its platform.
According to BuzzFeed News, the company will “no longer allow anti-vaccine fundraisers or any projects making health claims that do not have a scientific backing.” The policy change comes after the sequel to a well-known anti-vaccination film raised funds on the Indiegogo platform.
The filmmakers behind Vaxxed II: The People's Truthrecently raised $86,543 on the site. Because Indiegogo’s new policy wasn’t in effect at the time, the company will disperse the funds, minus the company’s cut, to the filmmakers. The new policy will bar future anti-vaxxer projects from crowdfunding.

Last month, another crowdfunding website, GoFundMe, also made the decision to ban anti-vaccination fundraisers from its platform. Pinterest, YouTubeand Facebookhave also made moves to stop false science about vaccines from spreading on their respective platforms.
Vaxxed II: The People's Truthis a sequel to the much-discussed anti-vaxxer documentary Vaxxed, which has run into its own issues with the tech companies. Amazon pulled the filmfrom its Prime Video service in March.
