Twitter users in the Philippines can now report tweets with misleading information that they encounter on their feeds. | via philstarlife

Twitter will ask you whether the misleading tweet is about politics, health, or something else.

The social media site says it takes this type of feedback seriously."Although we may not take action on this report or respond to you directly, we will use this report to develop new ways to reduce misleading info," the prompt said. Since the feature was first launched in August, Twitter has received 3.73 million reports of 1.95 million tweets published by 64,000 different accounts.

The platform has been rolling out tools and features to fight misinformation, including 2021's Birdwatch, a community-based platform wherein users can provide context as to why they find a tweet misleading.
