1/ We see voices being silenced on Twitter every day. We’ve been working to counteract this for the past 2 years.
2/ We prioritized this in 2016. We updated our policies and increased the size of our teams. It wasn’t enough.
3/ In 2017 we made it our top priority and made a lot of progress.
4/ Today we saw voices silencing themselves and voices speaking out because we’re *still* not doing enough.
5/ We’ve been working intensely over the past few months and focused today on making some critical decisions.
6/ We decided to take a more aggressive stance in our rules and how we enforce them.
7/ New rules around: unwanted sexual advances, non-consensual nudity, hate symbols, violent groups, and tweets that glorifies violence.
8/ These changes will start rolling out in the next few weeks. More to share next week.
