In an effort to reduce misinformation and disinformation in Ukraine, Twitter announced suspending the ads in that area now.
Also, the recommendations of tweets from other people too will be halted for an unspecified time. Twitter hopes to serve the public in Ukraine with needed information, rather than ads in these spaces. Also, it’s turning the Moments and Events section too, to be helpful.
Twitter Suspending Ads in Ukraine
To help affected Ukraine in whatever ways they can, social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter have already come up with a few solutions. These include Facebook setting up a Special Operations Center and advising users to lock up their profiles.
And Twitter on the other hand suggested several tips for the users to remain safe, and how to safeguard their accounts. Now, it showed up again with a new plan – suspending ads and Recommendations in Ukraine for a while.
We’re working across features like Topics, Lists, and Spaces to ensure the policies and measures in place can ensure the safety of these products, so they can continue to be resources you trust. — Twitter Safety (@TwitterSafety) February 25, 2022
