Last week I noted a strange account with my name on it with an Asian woman. The account is currently restricted after 3 tweets, being linked likely to spreading Chinese State Propaganda.
Two of the tweets were links to Chinese Video displaying military might.
What is weird about all this is that my wife is Chinese-Filipino with some lesser known step-relatives living in mainland China and the account baring my name, likely at random. The all English first tweet, generated likely by Google translate considering the sentence structure, I thought was a strong tell that this account was just going to be a bot, not a Chinese State Propaganda machine.
The account, having been restricted for over twenty-four hours, stands a good chance of being taken down, assuming the need of a verification via linked telephone number is now required, and not being given by the account owner. Still, I would prefer that to happen sooner rather than later.
Again...why and how is this bullshit allowed to happen on a public social media platform. Again...social media for who (whom for you uptight types). Why do these accounts feel entitled to run amok causing trauma - similar to a 15 year old hosting gamergate. Where did it all go so so so wrong.
Gamergate ...Pizzagate...Facebook...Twitter...QAnon...Snapchat...Substack ...allows these very people to publish on it's platform. I've missed a few platforms. One would start to believe that this behavior is some kind of psychological warfare perpetuated upon the Public. Because that is exactly what it is
What is the responsibility of a company to protect it's users and not solely it's board members
People are responsible for their actions and behavior. Even if you are behind a keyboard Susan...who is claiming tweeting while drunk...what is everyone else's excuse
Still livid, but a controlled anger...which fuels the desire for Justice.
