Twitter Plans To End Revenge Porn Next Week, Hate Speech In Two (arstechnica.com)
An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: In the beginning of 2017, Twitter said it would take on harassment and hate speech. CEO Jack Dorsey said the company would embrace a "completely new approach to abuse on Twitter" with open dialogue along the way. For months, though, the company has offered few details about what it would do, or when. That changed late yesterday, when Twitter posted a timeline with specific promises on actions it will take. The changes begin next week. On October 27, Twitter will expand what types of "non-consensual nudity" (aka "revenge porn") that it takes action against. The company will already act when a victim complains, but Twitter will soon act even in cases where the victims may not be aware images were taken, instances like upskirt photos and hidden webcams. "Anyone we identify as the original poster of non-consensual nudity will be suspended immediately," the October entry reads. On November 3, Twitter will ban hate imagery in profile headers and avatars, and the service will start suspending accounts "for organizations that use violence to advance their cause." The same day it will institute a policy of stopping "Unwanted Sexual Advances," although the company says it has already been taking enforcement actions on this front. Later in November, Twitter will ban "hateful display names."

Violence against nazis, white supremacists and fascists is acceptable. It's always been acceptable and it always will be acceptable. It may not be politically correct to punch nazis, but that's too bad. Suck it up, buttercup.
Violence against nazis, white supremacists and fascists is part of our heritage. You're not trying to destroy our heritage, are you?
You are welcome on my lawn.
No BLM has not, and has decried such attacks.
The world's burning. Moped Jesus spotted on I50. Details at 11.
It's too bad. They're much closer to Mao's Red Guards than Marxists.
Normally I wouldn't advocate violence, but then I think "what if someone had given Hitler a good slap?" and decide to make an exception for Nazis.

The turd in the White House will be banned from Twitter?
Hmm... Wonder if it will try to nuke North Korea in order to get the attention. Or maybe Mexico.
Will instagram save the world and life as we know it by taking the proverbial bullet?
Or maybe Facebook? Tinder? Grindr? Fart-app du jour?
