Twitter Isn’t Safe Anymore, Company Launches Tech to Fend Off Trolls

Sadly, Twitter isn’t a safe place for leftist morons to RT and like one another’s drivel with impunity anymore. The tech community of catamites and autistic screechers have been having fits over the overwhelming flood of pro-Trump ‘right wingers’ — which has led to a lot of acrimonious debate on the beleaguered social media platform. As such, Jack Dorsey has been unable to sell the piece of shit — because of the stigma associated with the platform as being a denizen of haters and haranguers.

But Jack has a plan.

The company is launching technology to fight abusive accounts and suppress the ‘low-quality’ ones. No word on what qualifies an account to be deemed ‘low quality.’ However, my best guess, it will not entail Leslie Jones — who has been nothing but gracious since utilizing the platform.

The social media platform said Tuesday it will stop so-called trolls from creating new abusive accounts and will collapse “low-quality” and potentially abusive tweets from feeds and searches.

That means Twitter will try to identify people who have been permanently suspended and block them from creating new accounts. The “safe search” will remove sensitive content and blocked and muted accounts from search results. Tweets that Twitter deems “potentially abusive” would need to be specifically sought out.

The changes come amid widespread criticism of Twitter, which BuzzFeed News called “honeypot” for harassment. BuzzFeed’s reporting revealed that Twitter staff struggled to balance the promotion of free speech while curbing bullying.

How ironic that Buzzfeed should be leading the fight to defeat trolls, isn’t it?  Away with bullying!

@Jack is gonna make Twitter safe again…for snowflakes.

    I think we need to take this one step further and let the tribe implant all goyim with bio-chips to ensure that they don’t have any improper and unapproved thoughts.

    I would like a Twitter API that allows me to speak so eloquently as Leslie.

    taking a step back and viewing this inside a vacuum…..it’s simply astonishing that in today’s world a company like Twitter would be moving to BAN the President of the United States from using its services.

    Bold. Every bold.

    I can’t believe that Howard is that low of a scumbag. He sure fooled me. I guess the true color of people comes out when the going gets tough for them.
