Twitter will now label and suppress misinformation surrounding armed conflict and other crises

Now it’s Michael Chertoff.

I take it Musks buyout of twitter is all but over, if it was ever real to begin with. So much for the concept of freedom of speech.

And majority of citizens uninterested in truth

If there are two countries in a future war, as long as Twitter says they could both be lying, I have no problems with the labels

Of course, that doesn’t apply to the Russia/Ukraine War going on now. We know everything Ukraine says is true and most if not all Russia says is false.

Where’s the SEC on all this?

Why don’t they just label everything as suspect and leave well-enough alone?

How do you conclude this? He’s demanding they prove the value of the company (e.g., real vs fake accounts) and will likely adjust the buy price accordingly. The company made representations that the now need to prove.

We know everything Ukraine says is true and most if not all Russia says is false.

according to the people that created the russian collusion hoax and the covid hoax, yes ...

We know everything Ukraine says is true and most if not all Russia says is false.

Sure about that? We're talking about the slush fund country for our most crooked pols.

Does this mean an end to Ukrainian propaganda that they’re winning a war?

Twatterists wouldn’t know mal, mis, or disinformation if it bit them on their flabby rearends.

Nothing that I have heard so far. I’m sure they are on it though. 😋

Wasn't Michael Chertoff part of the legal team for the Republicans in the Clinton impeachment?...You know, the only impeached President you never hear about.

Wasn't he also involved in organizing the Homeland Security Bureaucracy?...The plan that was already drafted tucked away in someone's top drawer just waiting to be voted on with lightning speed and little to no debate.

Thank you GW Bush...NOT!!

Yes. Why have the government do what private enterprise can do better and cheaper? Why set up a Ministry of Truth when companies are happy to do the same things at no taxpayer expense?

Twitter will now apply warning labels to — and cease recommending — claims that outside experts have identified as misinformation during fast-moving times of crisis...

Twitter, the rest of Big Tech, and the corporate MSM pulled this crap during 2020 to suppress the Hunter Biden laptop story. The result is Biden, runaway inflation, crashing markets, highest ever prices for food and fuel, baby milk shortages, and a land war in Eastern Europe.

Oh, absolutely sure. At least on line I am.

Wait, we have crooked pols? Wow. News to me!

Wasn't too long ago our own MSM was talking about all the Nazis in Ukraine. Now they're good Nazis though.

IMHO Elon Musk isn’t trying to buy Twitter, he’s trying to wreck it. And good for him. He knows for a fact that a large percentage of postings on Twitter are from bot accounts and got the board and CEO/CFO on record claiming it’s less than 5%. Once that fact is proven and their leadership is caught in the lie, he can sue them into oblivion.

false reports of events unfolding on the ground in the midst of a conflict; and false claims about the use of weapons.

How often is “officially reported” information that is either intentionally false or wrong due to the fog of war turn out to be wrong. Now Twitter is going to try to determine what is correct or incorrect and have to trust official sources?

Basically they are readily acknowledging taking sides and spreading that propaganda.

The COVID Narrative is over.

This is the Ukraine Narrative now.

Welcome to The Great Narrative.
