It doesn't entirely work until they manage step 3: make Twitter (and Google, Facebook and Amazon) the entirety of the internet. We saw some movements in that direction when Amazon and Apple colluded to remove the Parler Twitter competitor app. They don't (yet) control enough of the internet routing infrastructure to complete their vision, but it's definitely coming.
- vineyardmike 5y agoIs parler supposed to just be a “Twitter competitor” now? Is that really an intellectually honest way to describe it and why it was removed?
- bopbeepboop 5y agoYes? Twitter fights their users to keep CSAM available, while Parler was pulled down for a handful of posts they claimed they’d have moderated if they discovered them. Hosting the people who host CSAM while banning the people who actively moderate but missed a few messages shows a clear political bias. AWS is fine hosting CSAM for Twitter, but Republicans for Parler is just disgusting.
