Twitter temporarily suspends conservative academic: According to a tweet from journalist Colin Wright and an article from Daily Dot on Oct. 18, Twitter suspended Pamela Paresky for a week on the platform for calling out Twitter's lack of enforcement of its self-harm policies. Daily Dot quoted Paresky, "On October 3, I criticized Twitter for how it deals with self-harm—specifically that Twitter does not enforce its ‘gratuitous gore’ policy for self-harm images, nor does it enforce its policy of prohibiting tweets that ‘promote or encourage suicide or self-harm.'" Paresky added, "To illustrate how easy Twitter makes it to find posts with extremely graphic images and videos depicting severe self-harm (cutting), I tweeted some common self-harm codewords along with screenshots of a horrific self-harm post & accompanying comments." Twitter used the same policy which Paresky said they were not enforcing to censor her posts, Daily Dot said.
