Twitter is planning a new tool to let users automatically block and mute abusive accounts. The company will limit how those accounts can engage with your content for seven days. Automatically block accounts that appear to break the Twitter Rules, and mute accounts that might be using insults, name-calling, strong language, or hateful remarks," the description read.
The Twitter CEO said, many people don't trust us, with the Centre frames rules for social media. Never has this been more pronounced than the last few years." He added, "We aren't alone: every institution is experiencing a significant trust deficit.
A report states, currently, not many Twitter users in India are aware of how to report abuse or harassment they face on the open communication platform, opting for the wrong way of posting an abusive photo or tweet and then requesting us to take action.
At the moment, users can report abusive behaviour directly from a Tweet, profile or Direct Message. Multiple Tweets can be included in the same report to help Twitter gain better context while investigating the issues to get those resolved faster.
We have given additional tools to users to help them navigate through the service and keep themselves secure. However, there are additional ways to navigate to see tools and settings around notifications before you can mute a keyword or a conversation. You can report fake accounts or impersonation to us," Twitter said .
