Project Veritas dropped its second installment of inside reporting on Twitter on Monday, with recordings of Twitter's Legal, Policy and Trust lead Vijaya Gadde.
In a small meeting with Twitter's Trust and Safety team, Gadde said that "beyond de-amplification, we are going to—conspiracy theories—we are going to be permanently suspending those those accounts."
"Whether we believe Trump's tweets are inciting violence and having real world harm. I think we've seen that in fact, they are," she said.
"One of the interesting things is a lot of the work that we've been doing over the last week is work that we’ve built on in other places around the world, where we've seen violence unfold as a result of either misleading information or coded rhetoric," Gadde said.
"A lot of our learnings here [in the United States] have come from other markets. So, in that sense, you know, we do feel like it is—this is our global approach."
"We need to be very focused on being able to enforce any of these policies or enforcement decisions we make at scale," Gadde said.
"We decided to escalate our enforcement of the civic integrity policy and use a label that disabled engagements to stop the spread of potentially inflammatory content, which is the content around election interference, election fraud, stealing the election, that type of thing."
"We think that the severity of what’s happening on the ground, coupled with the information that’s contained in these [election fraud] tweets -- misleading information about the election being stolen and massive fraud around the election are what is changing our analysis of how we should enforce this [civic integrity] policy. It [election fraud tweets] is a much more severe violation given what we were seeing on the ground."
This was the second release of inside information from Project Veritas as to the decision making and bias within Twitter executive meetings.
In the first one, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said "We are focused on one account [@realDonaldTrump] right now, but this is going to be much bigger than just one account, and it’s going to go on for much longer than just this day, this week, and the next few weeks, and go on beyond the inauguration."
Dorsey also allegedly said in the Project Veritas video, "So, the focus is certainly on this account [@realDonaldTrump] and how it ties to real world violence. But also, we need to think much longer term around how these dynamics play out over time. I don't believe this is going away anytime soon."
