Peacock Warns Viewers Against Cyberbullying on The Traitors
Peacock, the streaming service, has asked viewers of The Traitors to be kind and not bully or harass the contestants.
They said the show is fun to talk about, but people should not attack the players personally.
This is not the first time Peacock has asked fans to be nice.
Some contestants have been getting a lot of criticism online for how they play the game.
The Traitors is a game show where some players are secret 'Traitors' trying to trick the other 'Faithful' players.
The goal is to win money by either being the last Traitor or uncovering all the Traitors.
Peacock wants everyone to enjoy the show without being mean to the players.
Peacock issued a warning to The Traitors viewers to avoid cyberbullying and harassment.
The statement emphasizes that the cast are real people and should be respected.
Some contestants have faced online criticism for their aggressive gameplay.
This is not the first time Peacock has reminded viewers to be kind, having done so previously for Love Island USA.
The Traitors is based on the Dutch series De Verraders and splits contestants into Faithful and Traitors.
