Twitter defines "Hateful Conduct" as racist or sexist slurs, tropes, and intimidation. This also includes hateful references, imagery, and incitement. However, the company's policies about what "hateful conduct" is have become looser since Musk took over. Just last week, Twitter removed policiesmeant to protect trans users from harassment like misgendering and deadnaming.

Here's one way in which the label will appear on tweets, according to Twitter. Credit: Twitter

While tweets that are labeled may see diminished engagement, Twitter says it will not shadowban the author of the tweet at the account level.

Since acquiring Twitter last year, Elon Musk has claimed that the platform will run under the mantra of "freedom of speech, not freedom of reach." According to Musk, this means that his Twitter will allow users to tweet "hateful" content that doesn't break the law. But, Twitter's will make it harder to find in users' feeds. For example, tweets with this label won't be recommended to other users via Twitter's recommendation algorithm.

Transparency is certainly a good thing. And, according to Twitter, being that users will now be aware when a certain tweet is being limited, they will be able to "submit feedback" and appeal the label. The real question though is will this actually be enforced, evenhandedly, and in a trulytransparent way. That's something that Elon Musk's Twitter isn't known for quite yet.
