Twitter restores suicide prevention feature after Reuters report

NEW YORK, Dec 24 (Reuters) - Twitter Inc restored a feature that promoted suicide prevention hotlines and other safety resources to users looking up certain content, after coming under pressure from some users and consumer safety groups over its removal. Reuters reported on Friday that the feature was taken down a few days ago, citing two people familiar with the matter, who said the removal was ordered by the social media platform's owner Elon Musk.

The feature, known as #ThereIsHelp, placed a banner at the top of search results for certain topics. It listed contacts for support organizations in many countries related to mental health, HIV, vaccines, child sexual exploitation, COVID-19, gender-based violence, natural disasters and freedom of expression.

Ah, so he probably tried to remove it because of woke issues...see my bold above.

And of coarse, The Man-Baby denied it on his twitter account

But his own Head of Trust and Safety says otherwise...

After publication of the story, Twitter head of trust and safety Ella Irwin confirmed the removal and called it temporary. "We have been fixing and revamping our prompts. They were just temporarily removed while we do that," Irwin said in an email to Reuters.

However,

Eirliani Abdul Rahman, who had been on a recently dissolved Twitter content advisory group, said the disappearance of #ThereIsHelp was "extremely disconcerting and profoundly disturbing." Even if it was only temporarily removed to make way for improvements, "normally you would be working on it in parallel, not removing it," she said.

Being in the IT field I agree with Eirliani 100%. Best Practice is to do improvements/changes in parallel in a testing environment, then roll them out to production.


What a Man-Baby. Only this time his hissy fit could actually be a factor in someone's avoidable death.

Billionaire Killer. Just like his un-billionaire friend TFG.

1. And if you have to remove something to bring the new

on-line you announce that. He’s such a twat.

3. Especially dealing with Suicide, one of the potential major reasons for death among younger people.

The Man-Baby has crossed The Rubicon with this act - who knows how many people tried to find Twitters previously very prominent Anti-Suicide Help Links and failed, and attempted to take their own lives.

We will never know. Even if it was only 1 person that is 1 too many that could have been helped.

2. Yeah, keeping people alive is so woke

the Freedumb agenda is killing as many people as possible, whether through suicide, covid, or guns.
