Twitter under fire for graphic images of Texas mall shooting victims
Twitter and its owner Elon Musk are facing criticism for allowing graphic images of the victims of the Allen Mall shooting in Texas to be posted on the social media platform. Critics have called the presence of such images "unethical" and "horrible." Musk has cut back on content moderation since he bought Twitter last year, firing workers who battled misinformation on the social media platform. Most big social media networks have teams dedicated to tracking hate speech and enforcing rules against harmful content, but under Musk, hate speech has proliferated at the service.
Controversy Surrounding Texas Shooting Images and Gun Debate Intensifies.
Twitter is facing criticism for allowing graphic images of a mass shooting at a mall in Texas to spread virally across the platform after the shooting on Saturday. The unusually graphic nature of the images drew sustained outcry from users and threw a harsh spotlight on Twitter’s content moderation practices, which have been curtailed since Elon Musk acquired the company last year. Unlike newspaper and magazine publishers, tech companies like Twitter must enforce their decisions on a huge scale, policing millions of users with a combination of automated systems and human content moderators.
