Twitter promises to fine-tune its 5G coronavirus labeling after unrelated tweets were flagged
LAHORE (Web Desk) - Twitter has said that it’s engaged on enhancing the way it labels tweets with problematic 5G or coronavirus content material, after customers reported their tweets have been being mislabeled with a COVID-19 fact-check.
“In the previous few weeks, you could have seen Tweets with labels linking to additional information about COVID-19,” Twitter Support tweeted. “Not all of these Tweets had doubtlessly deceptive content material associating COVID-19 and 5G.”
Twitter started fact-checking tweets that linked 5G and the COVID-19 pandemic earlier this month, by including the label that reads “get the information about COVID-19” which hyperlinks to a Twitter moment with “No, 5G isn’t inflicting coronavirus” as its title. A part of a conspiracy concept that has been broadly debunked instructed that the unfold of the coronavirus was in some way linked to the set up of recent 5G cell networks.
