Hursty Saw a lot of this over the last couple of years, it was annoying especially in the crypto tech space
Hmm, the press are strangely quiet on this.
It’s especially funny as many were so keen to tow the line that shadow banning wasn’t happening when the issue was first mentioned in 2018.
Check out this Guardian article from that year for instance:
"Is there any basis for the idea that conservatives are being targeted for shadow bans?
No – at least not based on what Vice purported to show.
[…]
“We do not shadow ban,” a Twitter spokesperson flatly told the Guardian. “Our behavioural ranking doesn’t make judgments based on political views or the substance of tweets.”"
But are they going to write a mea culpa article now? *crickets**
