Social network Twitter on Wednesday officially introduced a new “zero tolerance” policy for violent expressions.

According to Ukrinform, this was reported by the Independent with a link to the Safety Twitter page.

“Twitter does not tolerate violent conversations and in most cases we will suspend all accounts that violate this policy. For less serious violations, we may require you to remove content before you can access your account again,” it said.

The company announced in a tweet Wednesday that its new violent speech policy prohibits threats, intent to harm, glorifying violence, and incitement to violence on its platform.

The new policy also states that users “can’t wish, hope, or desire to do harm.”

If users believe a tweet violates the “zero tolerance” policy for violent speech, they should report it immediately. If you disagree with Twitter’s decision regarding a post, users can appeal.

At the same time, the company said it would allow violent speech when there is no clear offensive or violent context, and some forms of language, satire or artistic expression where the context expresses a point of view “rather than inciting violence or harm.” “

As reported by Ukrinform, Twitter owner billionaire Elon Musk will be able to appoint his successor as CEO of the company by the end of 2023, but he must first “stabilize” the social network.
