TL;DR Summary

Twitter's second head of trust and safety, Ella Irwin, has resigned, a month after Elon Musk took over the company. The head of trust and safety is responsible for content moderation, which has come under scrutiny since Musk's takeover. The reason for Irwin's resignation is unclear, but it comes a day after Musk publicly criticized a content moderation decision made at Twitter. Studies have shown that hate speech has increased under Musk's tenure, and Twitter disbanded its volunteer group that advised on self-harm, child abuse, and hate speech.
