Step By Step: How Twitter Addresses User Complaints

Twitter has come under increasing scrutiny for the way it handles user complaints, with some critics saying the social media site infringes on their free speech and others alleging it doesn’t go far enough. The Onion presents a step-by-step guide showing how Twitter addresses user complaints.

STEP 1: Twitter reviews harassing tweet to see if it was warranted.

STEP 2: All complaints received over course of month piled in a room for Clover the Anti-Harassment Pig to choose which one to investigate.

STEP 3: User who filed complaint receives message asking them to confirm they really want to be a narc.

STEP 4: Employees assess whether threat came from an account small enough to shut down.
