Twitter’s Policy Reboot: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

The biggest issue with the policy (and one which is not really mentioned here) is enforcement. Doesn&#x27;t really matter what the policies are, if Twitter is very, very loose when it comes to actually enforcing them.<p>For example, I&#x27;ve seen a few people get banned or suspended because they said something that made a popular user (or in some cases, one a Twitter member of staff agrees with) uncomfortable, whereas someone who supports said staff member&#x27;s political views or has more followers can get away with murder.<p>For example, there have been people who said something loosely associated with GamerGate who got suspended until they removed the tweet, whereas certain journalists and media figures could try and falsely accuse their enemies of serious crimes and get in no trouble whatsoever. It was also a certain Twitter employee who got Milo unverified for ridiculous reasons.<p>Twitter&#x27;s policy reboot is already worrying, but what it really needs to do is be even handed with its punishments towards those that break the rule. It shouldn&#x27;t matter if you&#x27;re a nobody or a celebrity with millions of followers; break the rules, get suspended or banned. It shouldn&#x27;t matter if your political views align with Twitter staff or not. Same deal.<p>Twitter needs to examine what it&#x27;s policy on freedom of speech and stuff is, but then also enforce it equally, however unpopular that may be.

The new Twitter policy is already used to mass-silence activists by dedicated (paid) teams of trolls.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;euromaidanpress.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;01&#x2F;09&#x2F;twitters-new-policy-misused-by-pro-kremlin-accounts-to-attack-top-ukrainian-bloggers-saveuatwi&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;euromaidanpress.com&#x2F;2016&#x2F;01&#x2F;09&#x2F;twitters-new-policy-mi...</a>

I don&#x27;t envy Twitter&#x27;s position right now. They are stuck between (1) trying to renew their platform to monetize and grow, (2) facing huge amounts of criticism on how they dont properly handle abuse, and (3) expected to keep their reputation of openness still left over from the &#x27;Arab spring&#x27;.<p>It is doubtful that they can survive without sacrificing at least one.

Quick question to people that know more about these things than I do (pretty much everyone on HN):<p>Is there a way that Twitter can prevent users from creating another Twitter account to continue to send threats and horrible messages?<p>The worst messages we see on Twitter always seem to be from new accounts with 3 followers, clearly throwaway accounts. Ban one, they start another.

Should be &quot;threats of violence&quot; not &quot;violent threats&quot;. Since people think anything can be deemed violent nowadays.

The most interesting reveal to me has been the the &quot;verified&quot; flag isn&#x27;t really a verification at all.

I&#x27;ve seen multiple people claim that it would be easy for Twitter to ban harassment on Twitter.

I don&#x27;t understand about the scope of this problem, maybe someone can tell me but is it really that big of a deal? What horrible things are being typed out that can&#x27;t possibly be ignored or dealt with in other ways?

I think the only feasible way Twitter could stop abuse is if it charged $100 per signup, and then ban people on the slightest whim. I don&#x27;t see how anything else would work. Of course the downsides of a plan like this are so large that it wouldn&#x27;t ever be done.
