So rather than forcing women to choose between accepting sexualized and violent harassment as the cost of speaking publicly or leaving the platform altogether, more people are talking about the problem and Twitter, it seems, is trying to figure out a better system. That could very well mean getting some things wrong in the process. But the problem of women being censored and driven offline (and, in some cases, out of their homes and jobs) is dangerously real. And the answer is not to do nothing, though that seems to be the only response from the men critiquing the anti-harassment project.
