A group of women who accused Harvey Weinstein of sexual misconduct have published a list of more than 100 allegations of harassment, abuse and rape, launching a campaign to “stand united” against the disgraced movie producer and any efforts to intimidate victims.

The women released a Google Doc with detailed summaries on Tuesday, one day after a New Yorker investigation alleged that Weinstein had deployed an “army of spies” to monitor and silence his accusers. The Hollywood mogul, according to the report, had hired private investigators to aggressively track actors and journalists in a highly sophisticated push to prevent the publication of a litany of sexual harassment and assault allegations.

“There is strength in numbers,” Zoë Brock, a Weinstein accuser and model, told the Guardian. “I just want to empower all survivors of abuse, men and women, to feel that they are not alone, and to feel that together we can shine a light into the darkness where these predators hide.”

Brock – who accused Weinstein of making an unwanted sexual advance when she was 23 years old – posted the list on Twitter, alongside Asia Argento‏, an Italian actor and director who alleged that the producer assaulted her and has since become one of the most prominent voices as the fallout continues in Hollywood and beyond.

“Writing the list was horrifying,” said Samantha Panagrosso, a Paris-based model who has also accused Weinstein of assault. “There are not just all the famous people. There are so many other women and every other day, there are more.”

Panagrosso said in an interview on Tuesday that she had been working on the list for more than two weeks and had collaborated and communicated with Brock and Argento in the process. “Everybody is supporting each other. It’s very daunting … But we are really organized.”

The Weinstein allegations, first documented in a New York Times investigation last month, has rippled across the entertainment industry, leading to a steady stream of accusations against the producer and other prominent figures, including the director James Toback and the actor Kevin Spacey. The controversies have also inspired women to speak up about sexual misconduct in a number of other sectors, with powerful men losing their jobs in media, broadcasting, the art world, publishing and government.

Weinstein, who was fired from his company and expelled from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, is facing multiple criminal investigations, and the New York City police department has said it is pursuing an arrest warrant in connection with a “credible” rape allegation.

The Google document, promoted with the hashtag #NoShameFist, offers a summary of claims against Weinstein dating back to 1980. Its release comes at a time when survivors of sexual violence are increasingly naming their assailants on social media and crowdsourcing lists of abusers in an effort to warn and protect others. An anonymous “Shitty Media Men” spreadsheet recently made the rounds among female journalists.

Some say the tactic of directly publishing claims online can be particularly effective for victims who face significant obstacles reporting to police or through other official channels due to the power and influence of their abusers.

“We’re all survivors of Harvey … and we’re doing our own investigation,” said Brock. “We want to figure out exactly how all these things happened so we can see the patterns.”

Weinstein has apologized for his past behavior, but his representatives have repeatedly said he denies many of the harassment allegations and “unequivocally” denies “allegations of non-consensual sex”.

Panagrosso said the list was not a “witch-hunt”, but part of a larger effort to help shift the mentality that enables predatory behavior. “It’s the start, and I hope the fire keeps burning on the cause.”

She and Argento recently met in Paris and have stayed in contact, Panagrosso said: “We felt like we knew each other … It’s amazing to be part of this movement. It’s like sisterhood.”

Brock, a model and writer from New Zealand, said she had also connected with more than 20 other Weinstein accusers and had discussed ways to “disrupt this culture of abuse and secrecy and coverups and shame”.

The recent New Yorker story alleged that Weinstein contracted investigators – including a firm run by former officers of Israeli intelligence agencies – to pose as journalists and activists in an effort to extract information from his accusers and dig up dirt on them.

Weinstein’s spokeswoman dismissed the report, telling the New Yorker: “It is a fiction to suggest that any individuals were targeted or suppressed at any time.”

The producer’s representatives did not respond to a request for comment on Tuesday about the list.

Brock said the revelations about spies made her feel nervous for the first time since she had come forward, but that she was all the more resolved to keep talking and to work with the other women: “It’s better if we now start speaking together, now that we understand exactly how dangerous this is.”
