Earlier, Twitter tags said election fraud claims were “discussed.”
The new labels say, “Election officials have certified Joe Biden as the winner of the U.S. presidential election.”
The new language is active now President Donald Trump’s tweet from Saturday morning undermines the election result and will apply to all future tweets that do the same.
“After certifying the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, we’ve updated our label to reflect the latest information,” Twitter spokesman Nick Pacilio told CNN.
The change comes after the rise of criticism from democracy experts who said the labels of social media platforms have not done enough in the post-election period.
Although Twitter said last month that it tagged approximately 300,000 tweets for content that was discussed or that could be misleading over a two-week period that covered the election, critics said those tags do not match the torrent. of false claims that continue to divide Americans.
