Twitter disbanded its Trust and Safety Council, a volunteer group formed in 2016 to advise the social media platform on on-site decisions.

Axar.az reports that about half of the social media site’s workforce around 3,700 employees has been laid off since Elon Musk took charge of the company and introduced a cost-cutting drive.

More than 1,000 Twitter employees have resigned, among them Yoel Roth, the company’s former head of trust and safety.

‘As Twitter moves into a new phase, we are reevaluating how best to bring external insights into our product and policy development work. As part of this process, we have decided that the Trust and Safety Council is not the best structure to do this,’ said an email sent to the Trust and Safety Council members, seen by Reuters.
