Women, Action, and the Media (WAM) have been investigating harassment problems and solutions to women on Twitter since October 2014. Among the reports given by WAM, it turned out that the victim himself confessed the harassment received on Twitter was less than half, 43% of the total. The remaining 57% is reported by a third party or group representative.


Analyzing the total of 317 reports, sex discrimination, racial discrimination, discrimination against homosexuals, etc.Hate SpeechIs the most common with 27%. 22% of harassment to disclose personal information without permission, 12% threatening tweet implying violence, 9% of lie's personal information twice, 4% impersonation, 3% who harassed others by harassing, revenge pornography Is 3% and so on.


In WAM, we judged that 155 reports (pink color graph) corresponding to about 43% of 317 cases are genuine reports and reported it to Twitter.


Among WAM's reporting to Twitter, 43% (reddish purple), 11% (blue) warning, 2% (light blue) solved the problem by Twitter, 1% account deletion, (Green), already frozen account is 1% (gray). Twitter did not take any action 42% (pink).


The graph below shows Twitter's actions against harassment by content of harassment. Light blue indicates account deletion, pink color is account freeze, yellow is warning, gray indicates that no action has taken place. Only one case of harassing multiple accounts has resulted in account deletion, and it is understood that account freeze and no action are about 40% each and are almost the same number.


Also, in cases where WAM independently analyzed and judged that "the victim is in danger" rather than the case that the person reporting harassment judged "there is a danger to the victim" There seems to be a lot of things Twitter has frozen accounts doing harassment. If you are suffering from harassment, do not try to cope with it by yourself, but if you consult with a third agency, the possibility that it will lead to a solution may increase.
