Brands are understandably dismayed at having advertisements next to other ads for images or videos of that exploitation. Exclusive: Brands blast Twitter for ads next to child pornography accounts | Reuters
Brands ranging from Walt Disney Co (DIS.N), NBCUniversal (CMCSA.O) and Coca-Cola Co (KO.N) to a children's hospital were among more than 30 advertisers that appeared on the profile pages of Twitter accounts peddling links to the exploitative material, according to a Reuters review of accounts identified in new research about child sex abuse online from cybersecurity group Ghost Data.
The brands in question are either "not responding" to queries or are using words like "horrified." Twitter is spouting boilerplate like the following.
In a statement, Twitter spokesperson Celeste Carswell said the company "has zero tolerance for child sexual exploitation" and is investing more resources dedicated to child safety, including hiring for new positions to write policy and implement solutions.
In the meantime Twitter is busy suspending accounts like Libs of TikTok for being mean to Liberals by mocking the things that Liberals say on TikTok. Actually, not always mocking them, just letting their words stand on their own. The jokes write themselves.
I guess child exploitation is Woke in the eyes of Twitter.
