  This was actually a genius system on Valve's part. I think what makes these two systems different are a few things: -Overwatch at least had some method of selecting people that "knew about the game." People that had never ranked competitively in CSGO couldn't make decisions if someone was cheating, whereas it seems that the hopes for this new Twitter feature will be that anyone can "fact-check" a tweet. Even if evidence is required, it is beyond easy to find secondary sources that skew facts or statistics into a different connotation. -Whether or not someone is cheating is pretty binary. They either are or they aren't. One of my biggest concerns for Birdwatch is that it was likely be used on tweets that aren't binary statements of "write/wrong" facts, and will likely be used in mass-reports of those of other political stances. That, or shitposting
