Funny for a lot of reasons, starting with the fact that this is actually way less harmful than what usually trends on here — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter’s top trends in the US right now are all spam in another language. Going great! https://t.co/JUojZTgMCB

In the same message, the employee said Twitter’s current head of Legal, Alex Spiro, said “Elon is willing to take on a huge amount of risk in relation to his company and its users, because ‘Elon puts rockets into space, he’s not afraid of the FTC.’” — PolitiTweet.org

“All of this is extremely dangerous for our users,” the message says. “Given that the FTC can (and will!) fine Twitter BILLIONS of dollars pursuant to the FTC Consent Order, extremely detrimental to Twitter’s longevity as a platform. Our users deserve so much better than this.” — PolitiTweet.org

According to messages shared in Twitter Slack, Twitter’s CISO, chief privacy office, and chief compliance officer all resigned last night. An employee says it will be up to engineers to “self-certify compliance with FTC requirements and other laws.” — PolitiTweet.org

@mehdirhasan @oneunderscore__ supposedly we are keeping them for 90 days. but everything is changing quite frequently — PolitiTweet.org

Also seems notable that the only way users would know that something changed about verification today is if you … read news coverage? Or Elon’s tweets? It’s times like this a company wishes it had comms and marketing teams — PolitiTweet.org

The fact that the new verified badge looks exactly the same as the old one, and verifies exactly nothing about an account, is really just one of the all-time avoidable design mistakes — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter said it only cut 15 percent of its trust and safety employees. But it also wiped out whole teams, including the one in charge of making sure new products aren’t prone to abuse Subscribe to read ➡️ https://t.co/D8oKg6BHWB https://t.co/0YDd9ShnTa — PolitiTweet.org

@jamesrbuk yes, that is also the current system. reporters are not guaranteed verification today either — PolitiTweet.org
