We’re always updating our rules based on how online behaviors change. We're working on a new policy to address synthetic and manipulated media on Twitter – but first we want to hear from you.
What’s synthetic and manipulated media?
It’s media that’s been significantly altered or created in a way that changes the original meaning/purpose, or makes it seem like certain events took place that didn’t actually happen.

The new policy will address this type of content, specifically when it could threaten someone’s physical safety or lead to offline harm.
Why are we doing this?
1️⃣We need to consider how synthetic media is shared on Twitter in potentially damaging contexts.
2️⃣We want to listen and consider your perspectives in our policy development process.
3️⃣We want to be transparent about our approach and values.

In the coming weeks, we'll announce a feedback period so that you can help us refine this policy before it goes live. Stay tuned for more!
