Of course everyone does mistakes, but that's not the point.
Twitter is just too powerful with all those engineers and access to ML to have this just as a mistake.
Whoever is responsible for that flagging is either:
- Incredibly incompetent and not knowing what they were doing (which I honestly don't want to believe)
- Knew exactly what they were doing and it's intentional with a benefit of doubt with plausible deniability.
Unintentionally blocking a whole domain "by mistake" falls into the first point above.
Knowing track record of social media companies hiring good engineers and being evil, also knowing Mastodon being a competitor to Twitter, I don't think I need to tell much more.
