Mind you, with the side effect that now nobody will know if not having the checkmark actually means anything.

haveblue posted:...isn't that how twitter always worked? There was never any revenue share, you can't be a professional tweeter the way you can be a professional youtuber Musk once promised that Blue users would get revenue share on ads shown near their tweets. He forgot about it basically immediately and never actually made it happen, but there's a lot of people who paid up for Blue and are gullible enough that they're still waiting for the paychecks to show up. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1621544497388875777

Can they sue him for breach of contract? He didn't say "would get", he said "[s]tarting today, Twitter will".

I am wondering what conditions were there for a NYT employee to still get reimbursed for a blue check mark. Like, for a reporter wanting to do one of their Nazi safaris?

It's just them hedging their bets, it'll probably end up being used for 1) pet reporters who are very cozy with management and 2) some verified account for people to leak stuff to.

What exactly does the blue checkmark protect against? Is this more about the risk of people who don't already know your Twitter handle being tricked by someone else imitating you?

Thing is if all the respected companies/orgs. and individuals leave than that stops mattering. No ones going to trust an "offical" Nike or New York Times Myspace page or whatever.

BRB, spending a couple of bucks on enough bots to promote me from #10001 to #9999, thus saving $1000 a month and triggering a very awkward email to the former #9999

That's probably almost every single account that COULD pay $1000 a month, to say nothing of wanting to lmao Good way to increase bot activity on your platform while making them richer though I guess. Plenty of right wing grifters and pet projects of billionaires are definitely going to be shelling out to get their poo poo at the top of everybody's feed so mission accomplished as stupidly as possible.

Looks like, in addition to non-monetized verification being removed, Twitter is now deboosting some words in tweets, as indicated by previews of those tweets being removed in DMs. https://twitter.com/trans_safety/status/1642122617594212353?t=XLkWwkEYuzszREJ8cR_2Ww&s=19 https://twitter.com/trans_safety/status/1642125065260085248?t=PU-Ux-bLzH02Gfw6F-tEmg&s=19 https://twitter.com/trans_safety/status/1642127882607534080?t=MMHiUWkisuQraAkP1WR7LA&s=19 https://twitter.com/trans_safety/status/1642130440218636288?t=8qljX57gFvMHWerVDTqXaw&s=19 https://twitter.com/trans_safety/status/1642137821992349696?t=knzQCV5Z8j7dM_CZQYSEiA&s=19 https://twitter.com/trans_safety/status/1642142743391526915?t=1kkaOosgvQNHIHGQmV9V_g&s=19 So queer and especially trans talk is being censored, but I'm pretty sure that one could test around to see if stuff like "Black" vs. "black" is censored.

Some independent testing identified more words flagged and censored by Twitter, as well as word combinations not flagged. https://twitter.com/EuphoriTori/status/1642233703567851522?s=20 While the "trans" adjective vs. "transwoman/transman" sounds innocuous at first, the accepted saying in queer circles is "trans woman" or "trans man" since they are just another type of woman or man, like "tall woman" or "black man", while removing the space to make "transwoman" and "transman" turns them into a group separate of women and men.

Young Freud posted:Some independent testing identified more words flagged and censored by Twitter, as well as word combinations not flagged. It's somewhat interesting to see that, apparently, some of the slurs in the list were not filtered before but are now - which means that Twitter is having a look at this feedback, but not in a "oh poo poo, roll back everything!" way.

Content related to the Ukraine war getting special treatment of some kind isn't really shocking, given how much misinformation, propaganda, blatant racism, and straight-up gore content is being posted from it. Hell, look at the issues SA has had with objectionable content being posted in Ukraine threads, and the special treatment moderators have had to give the subject as a result. And most of that objectionable content has just been reposts from Twitter.

Even from the available info it's easy to see how this drives homophily within groups previously identified by the algorithm, and the degree to which its extant language model dictates the structure of that homophily. These rules reflect and reinforce informational feedback into existing groups. ...really wish I had time to finish my SNA effortpost for the media lit thread.
