Ella Irwin, the Twitter executive in charge of content moderation and policy, has resigned. As head of Trust and Safety, Irwin helped oversee Twitter’s policies on harassment, hate speech, and violent content — rules which were relaxed under new owner Elon Musk. She was also heavily involved in account suspensions, and would frequently respond to Twitter users whose accounts were blocked. When Musk took over, advertisers began fleeing Twitter because they were concerned about the type of content their ads would appear next to. Irwin is the second head of Trust and Safety to resign since Musk took over.
