Twitter boss Jack Dorsey has admitted that the social network needs to do more to help victims of abusive behaviour online.
The chief executive said that the company had made progress in improving the health of conversation on Twitter, but admitted that it had placed most of the burden on the victims of abuse.
Speaking in an interview carried out entirely on Twitter with technology news site Recode’s Kara Swisher, Mr Dorsey said: “We’ve made progress, but it has been scattered and not felt enough.
“Changing the experience hasn’t been meaningful enough. And we’ve put most of the burden on the victims of abuse (that’s a huge fail).
