  23. Terrific papers in

  24. So likes are now private on Twitter/X. In some cases, this has been abused & people have been wrongly dismissed from jobs and positions due to overzealous policing / misinterpretations of what they've liked.

    But making it totally private means that we will have no idea who is liking posts that are sexist, racist, anti-semitic, Islamophobic, transphobic etc.

    This may well make the platform an even bigger cesspit of hate.
