Twitter is taking another crack at stamping out trolls and abusers

Hello, everyone! I found this article pretty interesting and I really want to share with you all. This article talks mainly about how Twitter takes strategies to prevent those trolls from creating new abusive accounts and thus to enhance the overall tweets quality. It also stated that Marc Benioff, CEO of Salesforce, had quitted his bid to invest in Twitter due to concerns about its reputation for handling online abuse.

It seemed pretty similar when compared Twitter with Weibo, which is a Chinese version of Twitter, with regard to this online abusive issue. In China, Weibo’s reputation is not that clear and pure like before because some users always publish or comment their thoughts with prejudices. In this situation, Weibo also deletes some abusive thoughts to keep a pure environment. However, some users in China think that Weibo is a social media platform that they can free to share their thoughts, so "free speech" should be the first priority of Weibo.

I want to discuss with you all that whether Twitter should implement this strategy or not?
