@fraying i don’t really understand the point you’re making. at the end of the day you’re criticizing Instagram while also insisting that it exert much more unaccountable power over its entire user base — PolitiTweet.org

@fraying i don’t see one-size-fits-all content moderation as the ideal here. some cultures are ok with some forms of nudity; some forms aren’t. insisting we all live under one global set of rules is a much worse outcome imo — PolitiTweet.org

@mosseri I’m sure you’re already thinking of this but would love to see more granular controls. Lots of people fine with nudity but don’t want to see violence or gore, for example — PolitiTweet.org

@bennyfactor this is absolutely correct — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

Instagram now has a slider you can use to determine how much ‘sensitive content’ you want to see. An experiment in putting content moderation in the hands of the user. I like this approach 👉 https://t.co/pWHK0MR8dP — PolitiTweet.org

Wrote about“Facebook is killing people” and CrowdTangle getting “reorganized” as two sides of the same coin. We don’t have nearly the data we need to have smart debates on this subject. Either Facebook should volunteer it, or Congress should demand it. https://t.co/PAz7A4Av6R https://t.co/tMKF9RB43l — PolitiTweet.org

@johnbarnettt Yes please! So many tweets are context-dependent but lose context outside the main timeline. Letting these expire automatically would be a huge win for users — PolitiTweet.org
