Twitter will block repeat Periscope abusers

Washington [United States]: As part of its ongoing efforts of clamping down on abusers across its network, Twitter will start blocking accounts of repeat offenders who post abusive comments during Periscope live streams.

The current comment moderation policy of Periscope involves group moderation which basically suspends a user when majority viewers report a comment as abusive, TechCrunch reported.

With the new guidelines, accounts getting repeat suspensions will be reviewed and suspended.
