I'm a little confused by what Twitter is trying to say here. Is it just "we compared the 400m/200m dataset with the previously leaked 5.4m dataset and found no overlap, thus there's 'no evidence'" that it came from the API bug? https://t.co/58ic57LiUY — PolitiTweet.org

"Dark patterns," or user interface designs that subtly nudge you to make a tech company's preferred choice, should be considered an antitrust issue, Kanter told me. https://t.co/HT5A6xUGuk — PolitiTweet.org

Big deal for farmers, who've long argued that John Deere's limitations on DIY repairs have disrupted ag operations. And interesting that the MOU restricts the American Farm Bureau Federation from pushing for right-to-repair legislation nationwide. https://t.co/MZFWfOIWzy — PolitiTweet.org

As I wrote Friday, Twitter's banning of links to competing social platforms *could* be perceived as anticompetitive, according to antitrust experts. But it isn't exactly cut and dry. The tricky thing is first proving that Twitter has market power. https://t.co/UpRuyNgXiA — PolitiTweet.org
