L'affaire #Dorsey

There's been a minor kerfuffle in India for the last two days since the Twitter ex-CEO, Jack Dorsey, @jack, made some statements about freedom of speech in India under #Modi.

A 🧵

(1/)

#Liberals are gleefully sharing these comments as evidence of #India not being a democratic country, and defenders of the government are going into attack dog mode, as usual.

But many people on both sides are missing some key things here:

(2/)

1. Dorsey didn't talk only about India. In fact, he also talked about how the #USA government tried to suppress things. As also #Turkey, #Nigeria.

2. This points to a deeper issue underlying the whole controversy: Is #FreedomOfSpeech absolute?

@Twitter

Fellow tweeps, you might not be as safe as you had thought. Yeah, #Twitter might be posing some risks to you. ⚠👀

In this thread, I’ve compiled some security checks you SHOULD do on your @Twitter account.

You don’t want to read it? As you wish. 🧵🏌️‍♂️

Oh, well, I guess you decided to read it anyway. That’s so thoughtful of you, and while we’re at it, I’ll appreciate and urge you to follow me. I provide exquisite contents that’ll interest you. 💯

For the taking, this thread is not about the internal vulnerabilities of Twitter;

I mean those private data leaks, account hacks, internal errors, and whatnot; no, it ain’t about all that. ❌👎

But you see those access and authorizations you give to external apps and sites via the Application Programming Interface (#API), they’re toast, man. 😂

♦️Bonjour
Voila 10 ans que je suis sur ce réseau, ma présence sur #Twitter était de promouvoir un projet d’un nouveau contrat pour les jeunes, un plan que j’ai baptisé #AJIRE qui est mon tweet épinglé sur mon compte
Projet qui a failli être adopté comme Loi lors du débat à l’AN👇

@faureolivier

sur la Loi El Khomri malheureusement le 49.3 (voté par @faureolivier ) a avorté,le projet n’a pas abouti,je le regrette pour tous les jeunes
Avec bientôt 22000 followers je me pose la question de l’intérêt de ce réseau,au-delà des amitiés rencontrées et de riches échanges avec 👇

les uns et les autres, je me pose la question de continuer ou pas, d’arrêter tout simplement et de prendre un peu de recul, peut-être aussi un besoin de réfléchir autrement, de passer plus de temps à écrire
Aucune dépression, aucune nostalgie, tout va bien, juste besoin de 👇

💥How to WORK OUT if you’re shadowbanned💥

1) QUICK THREAD:

👇

2) I just thought of a simple way to calculate if you‘re being heavily shadowbanned on #Twitter.

It involves comparing your interactions with Truth Social.

👇

3) As you may know I was “permanently suspended” along with 70,000 froggies on 7th Jan 2021 in the “great purge”.

I was reinstated to #Twitter a couple of months ago - with half my followers.

I believe I was heavily shadowbanned prior to my ban and I reckon this continues.

#Health #Insurance #India
Public sector general insurance companies in India are facing a huge challenge as they continue to lose market share in their #healthinsurance portfolio to private insurance Cos. Should you switch from a PSU to a Pvt Insurer
A thread🧵
1/n ⬇️

According to #Statista Pvt insurers across India held around 49 % of the industry’s market share in FY 2021, compared to 36 % by public sector insurers. Standalone health insurers had a market share of around 8 % and specialized insurers had a market share of over 6 %
2/n

Public sector insurers are facing challenges such as low profitability, high claims ratio, outdated products, poor customer service, and lack of innovation. They have also been unable to compete with the aggressive pricing and marketing strategies of the private players.

1/ Speculative thoughts on Elon and #Twitter (🧵):
- There's no point in trying to talk sense into the EU clowns. (OpenAI is realizing that, too - see my tweets on #EU #AI laws)
- *Unlike the rest of big US tech*, Twitter has more to gain in the US than lose in the EU (🗝️ point)

https://twitter.com/armchairancap/status/1662345770329337856

2/ Historically #Twitter's foreign user base is 4x of its US user base, but foreign revenue is only 1/5th of the US (h/t Forbes). So, why not tell the eurocrats to F-OFF? 😉
- Legally, Twitter is unlikely to have issues in the US. 5) - So, how to increase revenue in the US?

3/ First, get a CEO to deal with the US-based #ESG morons and #DIEcultists as well as regular businesses (☑️)
Second, cash in on the presidential race.
- Glitches, but also improvements (Spaces) are happening 📈
- Go-to platform for non-MSM candidates (DeSantis, RFK Jr, etc)🚀

@jsrailton

Been seeing these replies everywhere?

It's happening because Musk can't stop bots.

Let me break it down what's going on with this spam. 1./

2/ Reply spammers fight a cat & mouse games with platforms like #Twitter.

One way they get spotted is by the platforms examining links.

If spammers hammer a platform by sending the same link in a thousands replies to the same scam site, it's not hard to spot & scale blocking.

3/ Remember spam emails w/misspellings, weird names, blocks of garbage text, mixtures of words & numbers etc?

These were all tactics to avoid spam filtering done by looking at each of these things for patterns.

Each new filtering strategy = new workarounds.

1/ Gisteren aan het eind van de middag plaatste @collegetour_nl van de @PubliekeOmroep (@KroNcrv) deze 'alarmerende' tweet over @SigridKaag. Daarna gebeurde er iets opmerkelijks. Een draadje. 👇

https://twitter.com/collegetour_nl/status/1661752215596601349

2/ Binnen no-time reageerden honderden BN-ers met verontwaardiging en afschuw; veelal leden van het kabinet, politici van de kartelpartijen en journalisten van de mainstream media. Allemaal min of meer gelijktijdig. Heel #Twitter werd urenlang bedolven onder hun tweets.

3/ Dit was overduidelijk een georkestreerde actie. Dit is achter de schermen afgestemd en gecoördineerd. Het waren veel te veel tweets, allemaal ongeveer op hetzelfde tijdstip met ongeveer dezelfde boodschap, om dit toeval te laten zijn.

You can be that way if you'd like, Daniel. No one's upset that you're a #Kremlin employee. Everyone has to make a living, right? 🤷‍♂️

Just understand that we shall continue to obstruct #Russia's plainly obvious #war of conquest—apparently your definition of "#warmongering."

I'd probably miss the old #Soviet days too if I was you. We can understand your desire to rebuild the old empire.

Although, for the sake of your mental health, I hope you're not too overly nostalgic. Now that we know what you're up to, we'll certainly thwart your ambitions.

We'd had high hopes that you'd choose a more enlightened means of restoring your respectability. 🌍

Unfortunately, like the fellow in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade film who foolishly drank from the necrotizing holy grail instead of the real one, "you've chosen poorly."
