Twitter just announced a crackdown on qanon, the far-right wing conspiracy theory movement, by banning 7,000 accounts. The company confirmed the numbers to the verge of the crackdown.
Twitter says it will block qanon-related links from even being shared on Twitter. It will also no longer promote the accounts in search or conversations and will cease highlighting them as trending topics.
The company tweeted about the subject on Twitter. The company posted a Twitter account of the subject, which was posted on Twitter.
qanon is a movement that promotes theories as wild as the existence of hidden child-eating pedophiles. Facebook has been struggling with qanon moderation after attempting to remove some groups in May.
Twitter suspended a single qanon related account in 2019. Even Roku removed a qanon channel from its set-top-boxes and TV sticks earlier this month.
The company believes qanon supporters have continued and in some cases increased harassment of Twitter users in recent weeks. It’s clear the content that qanon supporters share is causing actual harm to those who use the service.
