Twitter to put labels on some tweets: Don't be the next
Twitter has changed everything after Elon Musk bought the platform and now another change is here.
Social media giant Twitter will start to add some labels on some tweets now. As promised recently, Twitter has begun labeling tweets that it believes violate those rules. When Twitter identifies a tweet that might disregard the strategy, it will restrict the span of the post and apply a mark that peruses "Perceivability restricted: Twitter's anti-hate speech guidelines may be broken by this tweet." In the coming months, the company intends to include additional types of policy violations on the labels.

According to Twitter, rule-breaking tweets may not appear in search results or the For You or Following timelines, limiting their visibility. Such tweets might be downranked in answers and it may not be perhaps to answer to them, retweet them, bookmark them or pin them to profiles. Social media giant has been trying to limit bullying on the platform, in order to do so, they try to eliminate these type of tweets.
Twitter noticed that it might inaccurately name a tweet as one that disregards its guidelines, so the creators of such tweets can really pursue the choice by giving input.
