In a letter to @Twitter, CPJ & @RSF_en express concern over the rapid deterioration of basic human rights standards and responsible platform governance.

The rapid deterioration of human rights standards & responsible platform governance at Twitter are contributing to a hostile environment for journalists, which could put them in physical danger & threaten the public’s right to access important information.
