Twitter Removes Transgender Protections and Policies.
Twitter has removed specific protections for transgender people from its hateful conduct policy, including the prohibition of targeted misgendering or deadnaming. The platform also removed a line detailing certain groups often subject to disproportionate abuse online, including LGBTQ individuals. The change to the policy is one of several updates Twitter has made to its safety and content moderation practices since Elon Musk took over the company last fall. LGBTQ advocacy group GLAAD called out the policy change, stating that it makes Twitter even more unsafe for users and advertisers alike.
