Musk's Twitter Disbands Its Trust and Safety CouncilElon Musk’s Twitter has dissolved its Trust and Safety Council, the advisory group that the company formed in 2016 to address hate speech, child exploitation, suicide, self-harm and other problems on the platform Apparently they failed because less than a month after Elon took over, he had decreased the number of child exploitation impressions on Twitter by 1/3rd. Something they hadn't done in six years. I hope Mr. Musk is personally subjected to everything bad about this sh*t show.
