This is the best summary I could come up with:
The “global crisis” in question is almost certainly a reference to the war in Israel, which a resulted in a flood of horrific videos being posted to X.
The Washington Post reports that both accounts “were among the most important early spreaders of a false claim in May that there had been an explosion near the White House.”
Many of the employees who focused on content moderation (known in the industry as “trust and safety”) lost their jobs last year, CNN reports.
Recently, the artist formerly known as Twitter removed headlines from link cards, instead showing only the lead image of the article.
Yaccarino also told the banks that X / Twitter was considering subscription tiers that would vary the number of ads shown to users.
Yaccarino previously said at the Code Conference that 90 percent of advertisers are back on the platform, although they appear to be spending less than before, Bloomberg reported, also citing an anonymous source.
