New Delhi:
Big news has come for crores of Twitter users around the world. Now they will be able to raise their voice against their account suspension.
The company said on Friday that Twitter users would be able to appeal and evaluate account suspensions under the social media platform’s new reinstatement criteria starting February 1.
According to the news agency Reuters, under the new rules, Twitter accounts will be suspended only in severe cases or repeated violations of existing policies.
Serious policy violations include offenses such as engaging in inappropriate content or activity, inciting or threatening violence or harm, and engaging in targeted harassment of other users.
Now there will be no action for suspension of accounts!
Twitter said that under the new policy, in the future, less severe action will be taken than account suspension.
Such as limiting the reach of Tweets if there is a violation of the policy and rules, or users will be asked to remove Tweets before continuing to use the account.
Let us tell you that earlier in December, Twitter CEO Elon Musk suspended the Twitter accounts of some journalists for publishing public data about his aircraft.
However, later the journalist’s accounts were restored as the controversy escalated.
Elon Musk in favor of freedom of speech
Let us tell you that after acquiring Twitter, Elon Musk advocated freedom of expression on this social media platform. According to Musk, users should get the freedom of speech.
In fact, during Jack Dorsey’s tenure, many Twitter users’ accounts were suspended. These included former US President Donald Trump.
However, Elon Musk announced a ‘general amnesty’ to restore broken versions on Twitter and fixed Donald Trump’s Twitter handle.
