Twitter Hires Academic ‘Experts’ To Enforce Sharia Blasphemy Laws

@Jack is enforcing the sharia.

Creeping Sharia:

Twitter has launched a new scheme to clamp down on ‘abuse, harassment and other types of behaviours that can detract or distort from the public conversation’.

It has selected two teams of academics to begin a project aimed at silencing the wrong type of speech on the social network.

The researchers have expertise in a wide range of subject areas including Islam, diversity and the spread of right-wing populism.

They will work to measure the effect of echo chambers and hate speech on Twitter, with the data used to guide the tech giant’s future strategy.

‘Earlier this year, as part of our global health initiative, we committed to serving the public conversation and working to increase the collective health, openness, and civility of the dialogue on our service,’ wrote Vijaya Gadde, who works as legal, policy and trust and safety lead at Twitter.

‘We want everyone’s experience on Twitter to be free of abuse, harassment and other types of behaviours that can detract or distort from the public conversation.

‘Work has been underway for months to make progress in these areas, such as making changes so you can be confident in your follower counts, introducing new signals into how we present and organize Tweets, sharing more on our expanded efforts to fight malicious automation, and acquiring Smyte to address safety, spam, and security challenges more quickly and effectively.’

The social network reviewed 230 proposals, from academics based around the world, on how to measure the ‘health of public conversation’.  more here

  1. What a sorry piece of crap Jack is! That’s why I like iOTW, we can be as ignorant (almost) as we want and we don’t get shadow banned or blacklisted. Jack should call BFH and ask him how to run a good site.

    Hey twitter, why would you “honor” the request of a profane group that denies freedom? Followers of a delusional desert bandit who authorized followers to lie and left a legacy of rape, pillage, looting, and mass murder. I am personally offended at the mere sight of one.

    That was some shameless ass kissing right there…

    I truly hope the great, noble, and wise BFH sees through it

    (He’s kind and forgiving, and Knowledgeable, and I’ve named My Kids

    After Him) 😉

  4. “Healthy conversation” is defined as” Smear America, attack Judeo-Christian values, prais tyrants and deny freedom”.
    Twitter has been formed by the MSM mold of 70 years.

    But I fought for their right to VERBALLY attack the country I love.
