Twitter punished me for literally doing my job.
Imagine the future of journalism once Section 230 is repealed or reformed.
(No, I won't be using this platform as I have been. I've been "admonished" on the word of a religious lobby.)
Opaque to even get a contact person.
What they want is for me to "check myself" before reporting. They got it.
This is WITH SECTION 230 IN PLACE.
Now imagine post-repeal.
I hate to agree with Trump on anything, but his rants about Twitter's deliberate opacity and arbitrary doling out of punishment are not incorrect.
More from Twitter
What I’m trying to get at, is not just that Twitter’s decision allows us to see—in ways that have been obscured—how much control they have over content moderation—
but as @Elinor_Carmi points out “platforms don’t just moderate or filter “content”; they alter what registers to us and our social groups as “social” or as “experience.” https://t.co/GSByAOoDWg changed
I’m worried that the celebration of Twitter’s intervention on fascist rhetoric-however too little and too late- directs us to desire tech companies enforcement of liberal and democratic procedures rather than towards an investigation of
how they’ve developed computational infrastructures which exceed the power of the nation state, are hollowing out our institutions for frictionless (see removing human contact) optimization and are insufficiently described by neoliberalism
Happy New Year everybody!

4/ On consistency
If, EVERYDAY, you:
— Ryan Reeves (@investing_city) July 13, 2020
- did 10 burpees
- read 20 pages of a book
- saved $10
That would probably put you in the top quartile for health, knowledge and wealth.
Consistency is extremely undervalued.

Some bats & pangolins carry viruses related with SARS-CoV-2, found in SE Asia and in Yunnan, & the pangolins carrying SARS-CoV-2 related viruses were smuggled from SE Asia, so there is a possibility that SARS-CoV-2 were coming from
