Twitter says the "overwhelming majority" of Russian state media content on its platform since the invasion has been shared by individuals, not the outlets' own accounts. About 45,000 tweets per day from these individuals since the beginning of the invasion, Twitter says. — PolitiTweet.org

NEW: Twitter says starting today, it'll label all content linking to Russian state media and will demote that content algorithmically, instead of just labeling state media accounts on its platform. Here's what Twitter says the labels will look like. https://t.co/VCCg4VAv1S — PolitiTweet.org

Looking at YouTube through a Ukrainian IP address, it seems RT's Arabic- and Spanish-language channels are still available from within the country. The odds of most Ukrainians speaking Arabic or Spanish is probably pretty low, but pictures and videos are universal. https://t.co/PwL8XBKsWv — PolitiTweet.org

The developer of an intense, grim and heartbreaking game (I should know, I own it) about the impact of war on civilians has been donating all profits to the Ukrainian Red Cross.

@therealmadmike @fanofwalt @deflep977 @dish @ATT @OANN That is not accurate, either. AT&T — which does own CNN’s parent company, WarnerMedia — spun off DirecTV into a separate company last year, though AT&T continues to hold a 70% stake. https://t.co/tOej69IsA0 https://t.co/W6p5rJPSev — PolitiTweet.org

A little scoop from me: The FCC has launched a sweeping review of the companies it regulates, hunting for ownership ties to Russia in a possible prelude to a clampdown. The assessment in coordination with DOJ and DHS covers all FCC licensees. https://t.co/hZTK9ga98f — PolitiTweet.org
