Center for Countering Digital Hate claims publication of hateful material on Twitter has risen since Musk took over
An anti-hate speech campaign group has accused Elon Musk’s X Corp of intimidation after the owner of the rebranded social media site X, formerly known as Twitter, threatened legal action over the organisation’s research into hate speech on the platform.
The Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) has regularly conducted research into the platform’s content since it was bought last year by Musk and has produced work claiming publication of hateful material on the site has risen since the $44bn (£34.2bn) deal was completed.
