Twitter Gives Terrorism Account Shutdown Update

Posted on February 5, 2016 by ResearchBuzz

Twitter says it has shut down over 125,000 terrorist- or terrorism- related accounts since mid-2015. “We have increased the size of the teams that review reports, reducing our response time significantly. We also look into other accounts similar to those reported and leverage proprietary spam-fighting tools to surface other potentially violating accounts for review by our agents.”
