Twitter Inc plans to toughen its rules on online sexual harassment and impose stronger penalties for misconduct, according to an e-mail it sent to a group of safety advocates, academics and researchers that helps the social media service set its policies.

They follow a series of tweets by chief executive Jack Dorsey on Friday announcing plans to act more aggressively to limit the number of bullies and harassers using Twitter.
