Short-form video app hires hundreds to help curb spread of harmful content  —  TikTok has poached hundreds of content moderators … Tweets: @j_k9 , @atbwebb , @mattnavarra , @muradahmed , and @cristinacriddle Tweets: Jonathan Keane / @j_k9 : Not a huge surprise here given the rate at which TikTok is hiring content moderators in Dublin. https://www.ft.com/... Alex Webb / @atbwebb : Noteworthy that TikTok is bringing content moderation in-house, rather than outsourcing, as FB and others do.

The push to clean up the app comes amid huge revenue and user growth on the continent - by @CristinaCriddle in @FT https://www.ft.com/...
