Twitter Expands Hate Speech Rules

Twitter added new policies to its hate speech policy which prohibits “language that dehumanizes people on the basis of race, ethnicity, or national origin.”

Engadget reported on the announcement from Twitter to “prohibit language that dehumanizes people on the basis of race, ethnicity, or national origin.”

Twitter has been criticized for adding more policies to censor the type of language used on its platform over the last several years.

Twitter will require its users to delete any content they deem violates their policies and the platform announced they would be actively monitoring tweets with their new automated technology.
