Now we know, What we Do with it?

Now that we know that Twitter had more spies than the CIA and Kremlin combined, we need to take action. First, we need to be more careful about what we say on Twitter. We need to think about whether our tweets could be used against us. Second, we need to demand accountability from Twitter. We need to know why they allowed this to happen and what they are doing to prevent it from happening again. Finally, we need to support independent journalism. We need to make sure that we are getting our news from reliable sources.When it comes to censorship, it seems that we have taken a few steps backwards since the 1930s. The Hayes Code was created in 1930 as a way to regulate what could and couldn’t be shown in films. This code helped to ensure that films were not too graphic or violent and that they avoided any offensive language. While the Hayes Code was not perfect, it did help to set a standard for what was considered appropriate for films.

In the 2020s, it seems that we are far more censored than ever before. Social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter have been cracking down on what users can post, and they are not afraid to ban users who violate their terms of service. Even traditional news outlets are not immune to censorship, as we have seen with the recent firing of a New York Times editor who tweeted out an offensive joke.

It’s hard to say why we are more censored now than we were in the past. Perhaps it is because we are more interconnected than ever before, and offensive speech can spread quickly and easily. Or maybe it is because we have become more sensitive to the hurt that offensive language can cause. Whatever the reason, it seems that censorship is here to stay.

The growth of social media giants like Twitter, Facebook, and Google can largely be attributed to government interference from agencies like the NSA and the CIA. These agencies have used their power and influence to help these companies grow by providing them with key data and access to important users.

Alphabet, the parent company of Google, is likely named after the CIA's Project Alphabet, which was a plan to create a global information network that would be used to track and monitor people and organizations.

Twitter, Facebook, and Google have all been complicit in helping the government spy on people and collect data. They have allowed the NSA to access their user data, and they have given the CIA access to their platforms to help spread propaganda.

The growth of these companies is a direct result of government interference, and it is ironic that they are now some of the most powerful companies in the world.
