Twitter accounts for 7 million users, suspends, reasons
New Delhi (Tech Desk) Social media site Twitter has suspended accounts of 7 million users. Yol Roth, the company's Trust and Safety Vice President Del Harvey and Platform Policy Officer, gave this information through a blog post. According to a blog post, the company has begun a war to revive the abuse and troll through twitter. For this, we are working on new technology. In addition, inflammatory content and tweets are also being monitored by making changes in the policy. However, there is still much work left to do Our effort will be to find that there is no promotion of fake accounts, rumors and trolls on Twitter platforms.
10 million fake accounts are reported every week
According to this blog post, fake and automated accounts are registered 9.9 million (i.e., about 1 crore) per day in the company's system. Which is much higher than 6.4 million December last year and 3.2 million in September 2017. According to the blog post, the company said that since last year due to technology and process improvment we are removing more than 214% of fake accounts every year. This figure can increase year after year. At the same time, 17,000 accounts were reported every day in our system in March this year, which is less than the February 2018 (25,000 accounts per day). Apart from this, after the new change, the number of spam accounts has decreased by 10 percent.
The step taken by the company due to mounting pressure
Due to the pressure on the American media and worldwide criticism and mounting pressure, the company has changed its policy and has begun reinforcing fake accounts and troll. Even before Twitter's parent company Facebook and sister company Whatsapp have taken steps to stop rumors. Since the Facebook Data Leak dispute, all social media platforms have been targeted for people, due to which rumors and trolls have changed the rules for fake accounts.
