Twitter Reinstates Account That Posted Illegal Child Sex Abuse Material

Twitter came under renewed fire over its handling of child sex abuse imagery after it reinstated the account of a right-wing influencer who had tweeted an image of a toddler being tortured. After some of the account’s more than 500,000 followers complained that the account had been suspended for its political messaging, Twitter owner Elon Musk responded by saying that it was because of the image.
