Does it? It doesn't to me. It feels like they've deliberately hand picked things that would rile up the base - dropping that the Trump admin requested content removed, but not showing that, then including an image of links the Biden campaign wanted removing, leaving out the fact that every single one of those links was non consentual intimage imagery of a private citizen is the antithesis of transparency to me.
- hn_go_brrrrr 4y agoThose are Twitter's official comms, not the leaks.
- philjohn 4y agoNo, those were the twitter files tweets.
- hn_go_brrrrr 4y agoHow is that not official comms? It's literally sanctioned and arranged by the C-suite. Regardless, this isn't what I was referring to by leaks upthread.
- xupybd 4y agoThe claim is that they are releasing through journalists for now to stir up interest. I think it's a ploy to get people to jump on Twitter for their news. Elon said he will likely release all of the documents in time. I'm not sure if that's safe for legal reasons. Who knows what private details would have to be redacted.
- philjohn 4y agoI have zero faith that what is released will not be deliberately slanted. Elon has made his leanings crystal clear, as well as the base he now wants to play to.
- ModernMech 4y agoThe reason it was released through journalists rather than as raw data is because they needed to attach a framing narrative to the data. They had to do this because the data alone without the narrative attached have proven to be pretty banal.
