- Ella Irwin, Twitter’s vice president of product trust and safety, told the outlet on Friday in an email after the report was published that the platform would conduct a “specific additional review” investigation over the weekend.
- “As you probably know the links you shared relate to a file sharing service broadly used for a wide variety of purposes and so that makes it much harder to find the specific illegal content being posted using the hashtags in question,” Irwin told the outlet.
- Irwin told the outlet the next day her team met over the weekend and banned the hashtags, which were already under company review.
