We will take into consideration whether the image is publicly available and/or is being covered by journalists—or if a particular image and the accompanying Tweet text adds value to the public discourse—is being shared in public interest or is relevant to the community. — PolitiTweet.org

Context matters. Our existing private information policy includes many exceptions in order to enable robust reporting on newsworthy events and conversations that are in the public interest. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

To be clear, we require a first-person report of the photo/video in question (or from an authorized representative). After we receive a report, that particular media will be reviewed before any enforcement action is taken. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

Images/videos that show people participating in public events (like large scale protests, sporting events, etc.) would generally not violate this policy. For more on what is NOT in violation, read the full policy here: https://t.co/plPa5TgEnM — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s unpack what this means. This policy update will help curb the misuse of media to harass, intimidate, and reveal the identities of private individuals, which disproportionately impacts women, activists, dissidents, and members of minority communities. — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

Beginning today, we will not allow the sharing of private media, such as images or videos of private individuals without their consent. Publishing people's private info is also prohibited under the policy, as is threatening or incentivizing others to do so.https://t.co/7EXvXdwegG — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter Safety @TwitterSafety

Sharing images is an important part of folks' experience on Twitter. People should have a choice in determining whether or not a photo is shared publicly. To that end we are expanding the scope of our Private Information Policy. 🧵 — PolitiTweet.org

On top of labeling, we do remove Tweets, especially those with the propensity for immediate & severe harm. Labels can be helpful context for disputed topics like COVID-19 where information is quickly evolving. Here's more on our misleading info policy: https://t.co/NaEDyEwAJx — PolitiTweet.org

Today we’re rolling out the improved labels. Take a look 👇 https://t.co/uog1H5LeR6 — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve been labeling potentially misleading Tweets to help folks pause and be better informed before they engage with certain Tweets. We heard from some of you that the labels were hard to spot, so we tested ways to make them easier to identify and understand. — PolitiTweet.org
