So, just doing some back of the napkin math — we don’t know what Facebook’s internal revenue projections look like, but we do have last year’s figures. Assuming FB revenue is similar or higher next year, 0.5 percent is at least $279 million. Not nothing https://t.co/Nvn7srx4pM https://t.co/KyeubDWP01 — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter's new policy gives it the responsibility to decide what's political and what's not. That'll be hard, but perhaps no more difficult than the other content moderation challenges it already has. As Twitter tries to thread this needle, Sec. 230 will be as important as ever. — PolitiTweet.org
