Gives you a nice view of leftist media control as a whole.
Elon Musk Hints at Launching New Platform to Take on Twitter
- Thread starter Steelworth
- Start date
Provided by Elon, via Matt...but another article explaining it was Vijaya who censored the Hunter story - surprisingly without Jack Dorsey knowing.
thepostmillennial.com
On Friday, files released in regards to Twitter’s suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story in 2020 revealed that former Head of Legal, Police, and Trust Vijaya Gadde played a "key role" in the story’s suppression.
"The decision was made at the highest levels of the company, but without the knowledge of CEO Jack Dorsey, with former head of legal, policy and trust Vijaya Gadde playing a key role," wrote journalist Matt Taibbi.

If they helped rig our elections, why would anyone struggle to believe Twitter interfered in others?
The FBI is lost. Fully weaponized.
BREAKING: In our deposition of FBI agent Elvis Chan on Tuesday, we found that the FBI plays a big role in working with social media companies to censor speech - from weekly meetings with social media companies ahead of the 2020 election to asks for account takedowns.
Chan, the FBI's FITF, and senior CISA officials had meetings with social media companies in the lead-up to the 2020 election, in which Chan personally told the social media companies that there could potentially be a Russian “hack and leak” operation shortly before the election.
Those meetings were initially quarterly, then monthly, then weekly heading into the 2020 election.
Chan stated that the FBI regularly sent social media companies lists of URLs and social media accounts that should be taken down because they were disinformation from “malign foreign influence operations.” The FBI then inquired whether the platforms have taken down the content.
On many occasions, the platforms took down the accounts flagged by the FBI.
FBI demands internet URLs and social media accounts be taken down because they are “disinformation” from “malign foreign influence operations”… nothing to see here…

Because Taibbi is one of, if not the only, remaining journalist with any semblance of integrity and not beholden to any anonymous donor or corporation.
He's independent, has called out left/right/liberal/conservative/gay/straight/rich/poor.
He's as straight a shooter as it gets.
It's actually a smart move by Elon.
I think this carries much more weight laid out by Taibbi than Elon.
I actually applauded when I saw he was letting Taibbi have access to ALL of it.
Taibbi will be thorough and lay it all out......whether it incriminates Elon, Gadde, Biden, MSM, Trump, or even himself.
Turley does a good review of the docs dumped so far. This is huge. This whole thing shows the in-sync collaboration between media and Democrats and how they directly influenced an election.
Censorship by surrogate: Why Musk’s document dump could be a game changer
As many of us have long suspected, there were back channels between Twitter and the Biden 2020 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee.

What’s now funny is EVERY single liberal/democrat on the take is going after Taibbi and calling him a hack/alt right/sell out/etc.
Because he went after them and their friends/team?
It’s AMAZINGLY comical to me.

Just wish we could fast forward to the end game in all of this. Who will police the federal police?
More. Including Katie Hobbs contacting Twitter to silence her political opponents.
If there was actually law of the land, people would be in cuffs right now. But we know nothing will happen and Hilary and her squad just laugh at this
The Left will have another reason to hate Elon. He shut down 50,000 child porn accounts.

I. Updates about fighting against child sexual exploitation content on Twitter.
II. During these weeks, I worked as an independent researcher along Twitter's Trust and Safety team led by expert Ms. Ella Irwin. Twitter achieved some relevant results I want to share with you:
III. Twitter updated its mechanism to detect content related to child sexual abuse/exploitation material. Faster, more efficient, and more aggressive. No mercy for those who are involved in these illegal activities.
IV. The daily suspension rate has ALMOST DOUBLED over the past few days. It means that Twitter is doing a capillary analysis of contents, especially those published in the past. It doesn't matter when illicit content has been published. Twitter will find it and act accordingly.
V. In the past 24 hours, Twitter started to step up its efforts and took down 44.000 suspicious accounts, including over 1.300 profiles that tried to bypass detection using codewords and text in images to communicate. Zero tolerance.
VI. Twitter is aware of strategies, KWs, external URLs, and communication methods used by suspicious accounts. Moreover, to increase its ability to protect children's safety, Twitter involves independent and expert third parties.
VII. Twitter, precisely in these hours, is focusing its efforts on networks of Spanish-speaking and Portuguese-speaking users that share child sexual exploitation content.
VIII. Twitter continues to have teams in place dedicated to investigating and taking action on these types of violations daily. Teams are more determined than ever and composed of passionate experts. Furthermore, Twitter simplified the process of users reporting illicit content.
IX. If Twitter is now fighting vigorously against child sexual exploitation content, it's thanks to one person that set it as the #1 priority: Elon Musk @elonmusk . Twitter is now a safer place under Elon's leadership. And this is just the beginning.

Think about his. It blows my mind if true.
Elon spent how many billions just to uncover all the BS that we all knew to be true, just to prove it.
I sooo wish people of wealth and power we’re more like this. I’m sure he got his own “me” **** but ahh

So Elon's release of info shows how Twitter censored speech in collaboration with the Government. There is something MUCH MORE BOMBSHELL happening in the courts, showing massive Government collusion with social media companies, pressuring them to censor speech.
Missouri v Biden
This is a LONG article by Tracy Beanz, and incredibly thorough. @Steeltime may need calming agents when reading through this.
The case seeks to make the following testify in court as to their collusion with social media companies to censor Americans and destroy the 1st Amendment: Deputy Assistant to the President Rob Flaherty, CISA Director Jen Easterly, and Surgeon General Vivek Murthy...as well as Jen Psaki herself.
We live in a banana republic folks.

The “Twitter Files” Are Peanuts: New Filing in Missouri v. Biden - UncoverDC
With the release of the "Twitter Files" on Friday evening, our ongoing coverage of the Missouri v. Biden case is all the more prescient....

So my two favorite feeds on the new Twitter are:
1. il Donaldo Trumpo. Has me LOL'ing at least once a day.
2. Space Force: Chepo Team.

Il Donaldo is THE BEST.
Does all the Next Episode gangsta memes when Desantis and others drop bombs.
LMAO, see you later Baker.
Should his license be subject to review? I know how this is going to come out, but isn’t there some level of code for attorneys?
The Russia collusion hoax is even detailed in the book about the Hildebeast campaign written by a few of her staffers called "Shattered".
Michael Steele with Joy Reid (Ricin being interviewed by Cyanide)...
Michael tries to redefine what free speech is. Tucker drops a nuke on him LOL

The next drop is happening now. Damning ****. Screen shots of the tools they used and the different ways they banned/suppressed users.

THREAD: THE TWITTER FILES PART TWO.
TWITTER’S SECRET BLACKLISTS.
1. A new #TwitterFiles investigation reveals that teams of Twitter employees build blacklists, prevent disfavored tweets from trending, and actively limit the visibility of entire accounts or even trending topics—all in secret, without informing users.
2. Twitter once had a mission “to give everyone the power to create and share ideas and information instantly, without barriers.” Along the way, barriers nevertheless were erected.
3. Take, for example, Stanford’s Dr. Jay Bhattacharya (@DrJBhattacharya) who argued that Covid lockdowns would harm children. Twitter secretly placed him on a “Trends Blacklist,” which prevented his tweets from trending.
4. Or consider the popular right-wing talk show host, Dan Bongino (@dbongino), who at one point was slapped with a “Search Blacklist.”
5. Twitter set the account of conservative activist Charlie Kirk (@charliekirk11) to “Do Not Amplify.”
6. Twitter denied that it does such things. In 2018, Twitter's Vijaya Gadde (then Head of Legal Policy and Trust) and Kayvon Beykpour (Head of Product) said: “We do not shadow ban.” They added: “And we certainly don’t shadow ban based on political viewpoints or ideology.”
7. What many people call “shadow banning,” Twitter executives and employees call “Visibility Filtering” or “VF.” Multiple high-level sources confirmed its meaning.
8. “Think about visibility filtering as being a way for us to suppress what people see to different levels. It’s a very powerful tool,” one senior Twitter employee told us.
9. “VF” refers to Twitter’s control over user visibility. It used VF to block searches of individual users; to limit the scope of a particular tweet’s discoverability; to block select users’ posts from ever appearing on the “trending” page; and from inclusion in hashtag searches.
10. All without users’ knowledge.
11. “We control visibility quite a bit. And we control the amplification of your content quite a bit. And normal people do not know how much we do,” one Twitter engineer told us. Two additional Twitter employees confirmed.
12. The group that decided whether to limit the reach of certain users was the Strategic Response Team - Global Escalation Team, or SRT-GET. It often handled up to 200 "cases" a day.
13. But there existed a level beyond official ticketing, beyond the rank-and-file moderators following the company’s policy on paper. That is the “Site Integrity Policy, Policy Escalation Support,” known as “SIP-PES.”
14. This secret group included Head of Legal, Policy, and Trust (Vijaya Gadde), the Global Head of Trust & Safety (Yoel Roth), subsequent CEOs Jack Dorsey and Parag Agrawal, and others.
15. This is where the biggest, most politically sensitive decisions got made. “Think high follower account, controversial,” another Twitter employee told us. For these “there would be no ticket or anything.”
