What is trust and safety?
The industry term “trust and safety” refers to the part of a digital service’s operations that focuses on understanding and addressing the harmful content or conduct associated with that service. Technology companies have made trust and safety a priority for many years, with dedicated professionals taking on the most difficult areas of the internet to reduce and prevent harm on and offline. Each company is guided by its own values, product aims, digital tools, and human-led processes to make tough decisions about how to enable a broad range of human expression and conduct, while working to identify and prevent harmful content or conduct.
