Following last year’s deadly terrorist attack in Southport, United Kingdom, Amnesty International has uncovered how policy and design at X has played a large part in allowing and encouraging racist and hate-driven narratives against Muslims and migrants in the country. In their technical analysis, researchers found that content-ranking algorithms embedded in the platforms open source code, “systematically prioritise" content that incites hate, conflict, and drives reactions and engagement. With little to no safeguards in place, this creates a breeding ground for X users to spread false claims, exchange hateful speech and carry out blatant online harassment.
