So, basically, celebrities and public officials can say whatever they want. ? Seems like the more followers someone has the more they should be held accountable. Their violations effect so many more people. https://t.co/mzWuTOfMzH

Twitter doesn't call out Trump by name, but this is clearly a new Trump rule -- labeling tweets that violate rules. https://t.co/iAaCVYoDtu

We‘ll now clearly label any tweets which violate our terms of service but decide to keep up due to public interest. https://t.co/0jxS7GrARy

Twitter is introducing a label to place over tweets from world leaders that are found to be in violation of its rules around abuse, harassment, and violent threats. Those tweets will still remain up, but they'll be placed behind a notice. https://t.co/b9KhKgpmFd

Strikes me as an admirable balancing of competing interests: accountability for behavior, and facilitation of public discourse now + historical/canonical preservation for later. Bravo @vijaya et al. https://t.co/MahV4zxtEl

Twitter is going to "make it clear" how they decide to add warnings to public officials' tweets, but then a "cross-functional team" at Twitter is in charge of making the subjective decision on what to flag. What could go wrong... https://t.co/zzlFOe9OsR

Sometimes, we decide that it may be in the public’s interest for certain Tweets to remain on Twitter, even if they would otherwise break our rules. We're going to start using a new notice to make it clear when we make these decisions. Read more:https://t.co/XqlJ9KHgir

NEW: after years of ignoring violations of its own policies by government officials in the name of “newsworthiness," Twitter is rolling out a new feature that will quarantine politicians' tweets behind a warning screen & scrub them from much of Twitter !https://t.co/lY62TTbGqW
