Having the ability to report tweets for being misleading is basically useless if nothing happens with those reports. Currently, you can report tweets for four different reasons. If you report a tweet, then you may - or may not - get a notification later saying that they've received your report. A few months after that - if ever - you might get a notification saying that they've investigated your report. Twitter support often seems to decide that even flagrant violations of their rules [1] are completely fine, taking no action. More rarely but equally unsatisfyingly, occasionally the notification says that a breach was identified, and action was taken on the concerned account. Then it provides a helpful link to the account, so that you can see that it's still up, with all the relevant tweets available, and currently posting exactly the same kind of threats. In common with other social media platforms, the problem is not that users lack sufficiently precise tools to report tweets as belonging to narrowly-defined categories. The problem is that Twitter ignores those reports. [1] https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-rules https://help.twitter.com/en/rules-and-policies/twitter-rules
