The company has implemented measures to remove harmful content, suspend violating accounts, and reform policies against violent speech and hateful conduct.

Yaccarino highlighted the importance of empowering people to express their thoughts while drawing the line at hate.

Yaccarino wrote, “To drive humanity forward, society must empower people to express their thoughts, make up their own minds, but also draw the line at hate. This is tough to do, but absolutely crucial.”

“Plus we’ve opened more lines of communication with groups dedicated to the safety of communities both in physical and virtual spaces. And we’ll keep going – this is not a check-the-box exercise for any of us – combating hate is a lifetime dedication,” she continued.
