Mr. Mask said in November 2022, ``Our top priority is to eliminate child exploitation. Please contact us when you find a problem that Twitter needs to address,'' and child protection is a content model. It showed the attitude to position it as the top priority of the ration. Also, when Mr. Mask unfrozen a large number of accounts in November 2022, he said , ``I will not forgive those who use the death of children for profit, politics, or fame.'' refusing to unfreeze related accounts, showing a positive attitude towards child protection.




In response to Mr. Musk's proactive stance on child protection, Twitter's official account announced in February 2023, 'We are working harder than ever to remove content related to child sexual exploitation from Twitter. We are responding quickly, ”he said , appealing that he has increased the speed of responding to child abuse content.




However, according to the New York Times, Twitter's speed of responding to child abuse content was ``responding to 98 notifications per month in an average of 1.6 days'' as of December 2021, before Musk became CEO. Later, in December 2022, it slowed down to 'responding to 55 notifications per month in an average of 3.5 days'. After that, in January 2023, it improved to ``responding to 82 notifications per month in an average of 1.3 days'', but the New York Times said, ``In January 2023, a Canadian child protection organization responded to child abuse content. I applied to Twitter to delete it, but it took a week to be deleted,' pointing out Twitter's slow response.

In addition, Twitter has appealed that ``in January 2022, 404,000 accounts that spread child abuse content were frozen,'' but the New York Times said, ``I think it's the easiest to delete.' Child abuse content that can be abused remains on Twitter,' he said, pointing out that Twitter's measures to prevent the spread of child abuse content are not working properly.
