Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

GamerGate was a cyberharassment campaign carried out against several women in the video game industry, including game developers and journalists. The campaign was largely driven by a group of mostly male gamers who claimed that the video game industry was becoming too "politically correct" and that the inclusion of more female and diverse characters in games was a form of "political correctness gone mad." The harassment included doxxing (revealing personal information online), threats of violence, and online abuse.
