Ha.
@TwitterSupport
I found a glitch in your shadowban algorithm. I'm logged in and can't search my own tweets! (No one else can either). You can't deceive me into thinking my access isn't limited (because you haven't notified me) when I can't search for my own tweets??? #Gotcha

So I noticed that the results the nicebrains shadowban checker returned would vary depending on the mix of uppercase and lowercase letters. I also noticed that the 'rules' in terms of what letters had to be upper or lower were constantly changing.
So I wondered how that would deal with a username that didn't include characters that had a upper or lower case.
Sure enough, that's enough to pull back the curtain. Instead of my logged in view looking perfectly normal, suddenly my OWN TWEETS disappeared.

If you can see this, you're special. Probably in a group consisting of no more than 50 to 100 users. Certainly not my whole group of followers, because my own wife is blocked from seeing my tweets.
This revelation is also what allowed me to 'see' all the shadowbanned bots that created the impressions I PAID for in a promoted tweet. Meaning yes @TwitterSupport , @TwitterAdsHelp happily charged me for impressions that no one could see.
And with all the fake fury over the russian bots, it kind of makes you look bad when you have thousands that you use to create fake impressions rather than clutter timelines. It's like selling blank newspapers.
