i'd have to go back again and reread, but was the term "handle" used at all? i remember them asking to "review" some tweets and to measure them against the tos. i very easily could have missed them asking to "handle" it though...
i think those semantics matter, which is why i ask.
- andreyk 4y agoThey did not ask to handle it, the person from Twitter replied "handled" (to another person at Twitter, for the record). It's in the screenshot of the email with the request.
- toofy 4y agoyeah, that’s what i thought i read, thanks. no outside person asked twitter to “handle” anything. they asked them to review it.
- cwkoss 4y agoAll Twitter users have the power to report tweets. It seems like at minimum they are bypassing the reported tweet queue. It feels likely that these report judgements disproportionately had the outcome desired by the requester. If not all requested tweets got taken down/suspended until deleted that will look a lot better than if this channel effectively allowed unchecked censorship.
