That seems to be in the context of "you can't trust Musk because TTF were a self-serving PR exercise" given the immediately following sentence.
> > In December 2022, he released internal documents called the "Twitter Files" to explain why he believed the company hadn't been fairly applying its moderation and suspension policies under the old leadership.
> > But those who have been on the inside, feel like Mr Musk has used this to de-prioritise protecting users from harm altogether.
> genuine improvement and insight will not be helped by weak or questionably-motivated "investigations"
Do you think they are helped by firing content moderators et al?
- mellosouls 4y agoIf those are the content moderators responsible for the political bias and censorship we saw (and was discussed on HN many times) pre-Musk, yes.
- nradov 4y agoFiring employees like Jim Baker and Vijaya Gadde who censored lawful content in order to push a biased political narrative absolutely helped. Good riddance.
