It has been all change at Twitter recently. After increasing the number of accounts users are able to follow, and switching the Favorite star for a Like heart, Twitter today takes the wraps off a new Public Policy and Transparency page.
This is a central hub for information about Twitter's policies relating to freedom of speech, privacy, security, and corporate responsibility, as well as being a home for transparency-related information. It's also the place to go to find out how Twitter is handling government surveillance and online legal issues.
In the interests of transparency, Twitter is also using the page to provide information about the activities of its political action committee. #PAC is involved with policy debates and the company says that in the future, details of donations to candidates will be reported within 48 hours.
