3 members of Twitter's Trust and Safety Council quit: 'Red lines have been crossed'

. Previously, Twitter verified users' identities before giving them a blue check mark.

"Verification on Twitter was supposed to be about credibility and accountability, and that's usually not something you can buy. So if you just let people buy verification or credibility, you have no credibility," Collier said."So if someone is seeing a little blue check mark or really any sort of badge of approval, the user doesn't know what that means and can't count on it.

Collier told Insider she would consider returning to the council if a Musk-owned Twitter improves its commitment to safety on the platform. But for now, as Abdul Rahman and Podesta echo in the release, they believe that vow has been broken. "I have watched with, dare I say, trepidation, the negotiations over Elon Musk's purchase of Twitter," Abdul Rahman said in the release."I had written down some commitments to myself at the time. Should Musk step over those thresholds, I told myself I would resign. Those red lines have been crossed."

In a statement to Insider, Podesta said,"The safety and protection of all users was always paramount. Having policy in place was always critical - it meant that everyone knew how decisions on moderation would be assessed. That careful process seems to have broken down now. I'm deeply saddened to see the rise in racist, violent and hate speech in recent months."

BISouthAfrica Whos going to believe your leftwing lies, News24? Everything you just said was proven otherwise with receipts, gtfo. Twitter is better than it ever was before as well as they are prioritizing child trafficking and child abuse. Some people seem to be opposed to child protection

BISouthAfrica The idea that he spent 44 Billion dollars for free speech on an App seems so ludicrous to me. It's people venting how stupid they are about life and history in general. But in today's climate, such rhetoric about hate etc, does not bring in more advertisements. Is it profitable?
