Flagging Hate on Twitter

Twitter has struggled to deal with abuse and harassment on its platform and now faces closer scrutiny from regulators. The firm said it will collect more insights on how the feature is working and potentially incorporate additional improvements. Twitter is to expand its Safety Mode feature, which lets users temporarily block accounts that send harmful or abusive tweets. The system will flag accounts using hateful remarks, or those bombarding people with uninvited comments, and block them for seven days. What extra need to be done to fight hate on twitter?
