Journalists and X users accuse billionaire Elon Musk of making it harder to find credible sources of news from the region after he allowed anyone to buy the blue check mark.
"X believes that, while difficult, it’s in the public’s interest to understand what’s happening in real-time," its statement says. / Photo: AFP
A post late on Monday from X’s safety team said:"In the past couple of days, we’ve seen an increase in daily active users on @X in the conflict area, plus there have been more than 50 million posts globally focusing on the weekend’s attack on Israel by Hamas. As the events continue to unfold rapidly, a cross-company leadership group has assessed this moment as a crisis requiring the highest level of response.
Brooking said on Tuesday that it is"significantly harder to determine ground truth in this conflict as compared to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine" last year, and"Elon Musk bears personal responsibility for this." One former member of Twitter’s public policy team said the company is having a harder time taking action on posts that violate its policies because there aren’t enough people to do that work.
