Twitter Rule: Twitter said on Tuesday that it has started labeling tweets that have been flagged for violating its rules to reduce their visibility on the platform. The micro-blogging platform said last week that it would label malicious tweets that violate its policy.
Elon Musk’s effort to increase transparency on Twitter
Twitter said, “Censorship. Shadowbanning. Freedom of speech, no access. Our new labels are now live.” Twitter previously said it was adding more transparency to the enforcement actions it takes on Tweets. Actually this step is being taken as an exercise to increase the transparency of Twitter.
What will be the effect on the account of Twitter users
“As a first step, you will soon begin to see labels on certain Tweets that have been identified as potentially violating our rules around hateful conduct, letting you know that we have limited their visibility. ” These actions will only be taken at the Tweet level and will not affect any user’s account.
Those who write tweet will also be able to give reaction
The company said that restricting access to tweets helps reduce the binary ‘leave up vs take down’ content moderation decisions that support our freedom of speech vs freedom of access. The company said this can sometimes be inaccurate, so authors will be able to provide feedback to the label if they believe we have unfairly limited the visibility of their content. “In the future, we plan to allow authors to appeal our decisions to limit the visibility of Tweets,” the company said.
