According to news on January 8, it is clear that the layoffs of Twitter's new boss, Elon Musk, for the social media are not over yet. Employees responsible for global content censorship and dealing with hate speech and harassment have been included in the latest layoffs, according to foreign media.

Under Mr Musk's leadership, Twitter is continuing to eliminate the trust and security team responsible for global content censorship, while teams dealing with hate speech and harassment have also been affected by layoffs, according to people familiar with the matter.

At least 12 employees at Twitter's offices in Dublin and Singapore were laid off on Friday night local time, including Nur Azhar Bin Ayob, head of integrity for Twitter Asia Pacific, and Analuisa Domguez, senior director of revenue policy for Twitter, according to people familiar with the matter.

At the same time, a number of people have been laid off from the team responsible for handling false information policies, global complaints and official media on the Twitter platform.

Ella Ella Irwin, Twitter's head of trust and security, confirmed that several members of her team had been laid off, but she denied some of the information revealed by so-called insiders. In response to a request for comment via email, Mr Owen said: "it makes more sense to integrate the team under one leader rather than two leaders."

Owen also said that Twitter did make new layoffs in some areas, but that was because these areas did not provide enough reasons to prove that it could continue to have reasonable support from the company. Twitter has increased the staffing of these departments and will continue to retain the head of revenue policy and the platform's trust and security business in the Asia-Pacific region, she said.

In October, Mr Musk bought Twitter for $44 billion, a deal financed in part by nearly $13 billion in debt and about $1.5 billion a year in interest payments. Since then, Musk has taken a number of radical steps to reform the social media platform. Mr Musk warned that Twitter was at risk of bankruptcy, with the platform losing $4 million a day as of early November.

In an interview with Twitter Spaces last month, Musk compared Twitter to a plane that crashed to the ground at high speed, with its engine on fire and its control system not working properly. Since taking over Twitter, Mr Musk has laid off about 5000 of his 7500 employees and built a so-called "hard core" work model for those who remain.

Twitter faces several lawsuits over unpaid bills, including private charter flights, software services and rent for its San Francisco office.
