Nothing adverse besides widespread outages and revenue collapse. To be clear the revenue collapse might be unrelated to the full but I'd call it adverse.

- kaliqt 3y agoIncorrect. It is completely unrelated. Revenue collapsed due to the powers that be getting angry at him for ending the censorship regime. As for outages, the issues were little to none.
- Daishiman 3y agoYou mean advertisers don't like to see their ads next to bigoted content? Truly terrible.
- felixgallo 3y agoremember when he published the actual algorithm for twitter and everyone could look at the code that was reportedly boosting the woke and canceling maga, and it turned out not to have any kind of censorship regime or boosting, except it boosted his account? That was a great time.
- mrguyorama 3y agoAnd also it wasn't "the algorithm" at all but just some boilerplate python you use to feed stuff into the actual model, literally "let's put an ML model here" 101 kinda stuff. It was such a dumb stunt.
- bboygravity 3y agoHave you read Twitter files?! The boosting was done deliberatly and paid for by government agencies (of which some ex-employees where on Twitter's payroll). It's quite irrelevant IMO whether the deliberate censorship for a certain US political flavor was done automatically or manually.
- cyanydeez 3y agohave you reread Twitter files after it was debunked and defanged. it's amazing how bad information fluffed up by the angry news media gets thoroughly routed in people's mind, then gets quietly defanged and drilled to earth to the point it's a completely innocuous gossip chain. see currently the Biden impeachment and Russian propaganda laundering. people really want to believe salacious stories that cut against popular perception to the point they just get to keep riding that wave of mental backflips to suit their increasingly deranged phantasm.
