Twitter just banned a wave of prominent journalists with no explanation https://tcrn.ch/3BHiHkC

Also this account is super interesting. https://mastodon.social/@Elonjet

They're gonna have to rename the Streisand Effect after tonight.

My @nytimes colleague @RMac18 is suspended, apparently for tweeting about this situation.

The "free speech absolutist" and apartheid emerald mine beneficiary has suspended @IGD_News

You can find articles at https://itsgoingdown.org/ and follow them over on Mastodon https://kolektiva.social/@igd_news

IGD also has a podcast you can find easily https://itsgoingdown.org/category/podcast/

It appears Twitter has banned the accounts of Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) and Washington Post reporter @drewharwell. Unclear why, but this seems to be the final tweet from Harwell.

Several accounts for prominent journalists have been suspended. I guess freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom of the press:
Aaron Rupar (@atrupar)
Drew Harwell (@drewharwell)
Donie O'Sullivan (@donie)
Ryan Mac (@rmac18)
Matt Binder (@mattbinder)

honestly i thought this app would collapse for technical reasons and not because the loser who owns it does a night of the long knives to everyone who doesn't kiss his ass

Here’s the patent for it they tout on the site.

They pretty much patented their very unique data infrastructure.

11/10 marketing.

Tried to use the Shutterfly mobile app to design my Christmas cards. Selected the wrong photo from my camera roll so now I have 90 of these.

Look twitter tos is in place to protect the guy who owns the site not children’s hospitals. If you want it to be different you can rise up through our meritocratic system by having your ancestors steal an emerald mine and buy twitter yourself

So much for free speech. Musk has killed @ElonJet, which was using public aircraft data.

I’m overwhelmingly empathetic to doxing and taking action, but there’s no valid argument this endangers anyone.

i love to diss on mastodon and this actually comes from a rather unfair frustration that like a lot of OSS its just trying to reskin the big alternative, twitter (toots, seriously?) in a clunky way instead of making anything new. it’s funny to see jack doing that to masto now

holy fucking shit, tesla stock is crashing and burning faster than an actual tesla

With its newest update, Home Assistant has welcomed #Aranet onboard. We’re looking forward to helping all the homebodies breathe easier and feel happier. Cheers to a healthier indoors moving forward. 😊

NEW: Twitter currently does not have admin access to some of its GitHub repos. These repos contain Twitter source code (much of it is open source; some is not). This includes code for companies Twitter acquired, like Smyte. 1/

Matt Taibbi and Elon Musk rummaged through millions of emails & Slack messages from pre-Musk Twitter & all they found was employees deliberating & consulting w/each other about how to fairly apply & enforce rules. But I get it..

To a rich white man, that seems very oppressive

Whatever Twitter used to be for me died over the weekend. We'll have more reporting + thoughts in @platformer today but in the meantime here's also this!
