Elon Musk has decimated the specialist global team dedicated to tackling child sexual exploitation, leaving behind an overwhelmed skeleton crew.
This builds on @WIRED's reporting that it has just one staff member focused on this issue in Asia.
The teams in Ireland and the US are also heavily affected.
The division of Trust & Safety focused on child sexual exploitation was already massively overstretched, and worked very long hours to crack down on CSAM, grooming and other abusive behaviors.
Musk claims child safety is a priority for Twitter.
I spoke to people who were frustrated to see that Musk is getting credit for the takedown of some hashtags associated with child sexual abuse -- a move that had been in the works for months
