On Thursday, three members of Twitter's Trusty & Safety Council quit the company in a huff, claiming in a tweeted screed that the "safety and well being of Twitter's users are on the decline" since Elon Musk took over. The individuals in question - Anne Collier, Eirliani Abdul Rahman, and Lesley Podesta (niece of John Podesta) - wrote about how they've worked tirelessly on 'digital safety' - with Rahman proudly serving on the Council's "Child Sexual Exploitation (CSE) Prevention advisory group." Except - these three beacons of virtue apparently didn't do much when it came to pedophiles running rampant on the platform - which led several major brands to pull campaigns with the company shortly before Musk's acquisition. "You all belong in jail," tweeted commentator Mike Cernovich, linking to a New York Post article outlining how Twitter refused to remove child porn because it "didn't find a violation." To which Elon Musk replied: "It is a crime that they refused to take action on child exploitation for years!" Yoel Roth notably wrote his PhD dissertation on the gay sex app Grindr, in which he downplayed safety concerns about minors being exposed to sexual content online. And part of his dissertation (called "Gay Data"). pic.twitter.com/cpr34EqIhO faayete (@faayete) November 20, 2022 After Roth left, Musk began cleaning up child pornography on the platform. Twitter's child porn issues were noted by The Verge in late August, causing pushback from advertisers that are critical to the company's revenue stream. After Reuters presented Twitter with a sample of 20 accounts promoting child porn last Thursday, the company removed around 300 additional accounts from the network, but over 100 remained on the platform the following day, according to Ghost Data and Reuters. And while child porn ran rampant at Twitter, the well-connected Leslie Podesta was militant about vaccination and absolutely hated Donald Trump. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
