    We’ve placed a public interest notice on this Tweet for violating our policy against abusive behavior, specifically, the presence of a threat of harm against an identifiable group.

    There will never be an “Autonomous Zone” in Washington, D.C., as long as I’m your President. If they try they will be met with serious force!

    The goal is to serve the public conversation and advance shared understanding of these critical issues. We’ve partnered with Stanford & the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, leaders in this area that are providing independent analysis today.

    We will continue to be transparent in how we make our decisions and be open with our rationale on how we label certain Tweets. Publicly sharing our work is core to everything we do. If we can’t explain and be confident in our determination, we will not label a Tweet.

    We also believe it’s important people can read and speak about what world leaders say, even if they violate our rules. We shared more details on our public interest notice in October.

    We will only add descriptive text that is reflective of the existing public conversation to let people determine their own viewpoints. To date, we have applied these labels to thousands of Tweets around the world, primarily related to COVID-19 and manipulated media.

    When we label Tweets we link to Twitter conversation that shows three things for context: 1⃣Factual statements (e.g. “ballots are only being sent to registered voters”) 2⃣Counterpoint opinions & perspectives 3⃣Ongoing public conversation around the issue

    We have since expanded to issues of civic integrity and public health given the critical importance of elections and the current health crisis.

    We are NOT attempting to address all misinformation. Instead, we prioritize based on the highest potential for harm, focusing on manipulated media, civic integrity, and COVID-19. Likelihood, severity and type of potential harm — along with reach and scale — factor into this.

    We heard: 1⃣Twitter shouldn’t determine the truthfulness of Tweets 2⃣Twitter should provide context to help people make up their own minds in cases where the substance of a Tweet is disputed Hence, our focus is on providing context, not fact-checking.

    These principles also shape our work on misleading information. In this area too, we're using feedback from the people we serve. In 2019, we consulted with the public on our approach and that has guided our work since.

    Our initial review shows that people want to know if they’re viewing manipulated content and they support Twitter labeling it. In the coming months, we’ll finish reviewing responses and finalizing the policy before we make another announcement 30 days before it goes into effect.

    The principles above connect to everything for us — from our decision to ban all political ads, to our policy around public-interest notices, and even a product test that lets people choose who can reply.
