Twitter has announced easier way for users to report abusive tweets on micro-blogging platform. Now you can report tweets with less information.
Earlier, users had to fill out a long form to file complaint against an abusive account. But now we have very fewer steps. Now one can also report if he/she observed abuse but not received it directly. This new process is simpler and faster. To shorted the response time, company has also made few changes behind the scenes.
Starting today we’re rolling out an improved way to flag abusive Tweets. See how it works. https://t.co/Yf6cStz0z1
