#3Isn't it slightly ironic for a post on transparency to be signed "Twitter" as its author instead of some human? Who's speaking at this point?
Of course in context of the rest of their missteps it's a tiny thing, but it stands out to me immediately when seeing the post at least.

#8Transparency would be releasing the data that they check against for "abusive, toxicity, nsfw" content.

Without transparency on this data, they cannot prove to the public "twitter files" type censorship isn't still happening.

This is so hilarious that I'm having trouble laughing at it. I can't even describe how funny this is. I love 2023. It's giving science fiction authors a hard time trying to keep up with the absurdity.
