If we can ID theim and their employers ... we will.
@MarcusRashford How we do this (for the technically curious)

We create custom search pages on the socmed platforms, and run 'wget' in bash/*nix on these every 10 seconds and/or refresh, then pipe (||) from stdout to 'sed' to wash non-ascii ...
@MarcusRashford ... then to 'grep' to extract unique data only, then 'grep' again, looped for each of a set of keywords, || to an action file for tomorrow.

Easy peasy.
@MarcusRashford And all of this is done by a 23 line script.
@MarcusRashford You may wonder how a handful of geeks and IT veterans, with a few scripts and a trio of second hand £50 servers, can do this and Twitter can't.

The answer, of course, is that Twitter can but choose not to.
@MarcusRashford How we do this (the emailed screenshots) :

Using IFTT images get >> a GDrive folder, <<>> to a folder on a server. Our OCR reader grabs them and processes them for account name, text and date/time to find the original tweet.

You didn't think we did manually 1 by 1 did you ? :-)

Yhread : On simple technical solutions to fighting online racism and other forms of hatred.
Last night after the England gane, and the resultant avalanche of racist vitriol aimed at a handful of players, we put out an alert / appeal on Twitter:

Well, after last night's post we've had a busy day.

Yes, we were - still are - covering other soc med platforms, and other players.

We have automated scripts for this.
The flood on the accounts of Rashford, Saka and Sterling tailed off from 2.00am onwards.

.@MattJukesMPS : See thread.

Explain again how you are 'under-resourced' and 'misunderstood' and 'always using proportional force' ?

(Your boos Cressida Dick appears not to be on Twitter. One can guess why.)
@MattJukesMPS .@MattJukesMPS @metpoliceuk

NOW do you understand what people mean when they carry these signs ?

And you want MORE POWERS ?
@MattJukesMPS Part of the Raid Force is the TSG - Territorial Support Group. Their jobs is :

.. Securing the capital against terrorism.
.. Responding to disorder anywhere within London.
.. Reducing priority crime through borough support.

This is NONE OF THOSE THREE.

Geared-up police forcing entry with all their toys. Armed Siege ? No. Drugs Bust ? No. Terror Cell ? Weapons Factory ? No.
It's a Collective Art Studio run by a Charity and police are busting in to remove a perfectly legal but "satirical and subversive" abstract sculpture on the roof connected with Extinction Rebellion.
Here's the video. See how many go in. I count 41.

For a sculpture.

Yup - The Tories are authorising police to tear down sculptures.

Workshop ransacked, three arrested then released with no charge.

More Legal woes for #Trump :

#Arizona Sec State is calling on state Att Gen Brnovich to investigate #Trump and his allies for attempting to make contact with Election Supervisors in #Maricopa County in the weeks following the November election.

That's a felony.

That's jail.

In the aftermath of the Christian #Eriksen incident during the #Denmark versus #Finland #Euro2020 game, Danish TV and media are highlighting the actions of team captain Simon Kjaer.

1/-.
@jdpoc it was Kjaer who cleared Erickson’s airways, ensuring his tongue was not blocking his breathing, and placed him in the recovery position.

2/-.
@jdpoc It was also Kjaer who called for paramedics as well as team physios, instantly recognising the seriousness of the problem.
