"Has Twitter "Shadowbanned" Ted Cruz?
It Sure Looks That Way
"Shadowbanning" is a banning that's hidden from the user.
They don't ban you outright, but they do block everyone except the people you most frequently interact with from seeing your tweets.
A while ago, when I was still on twitter, one of my snarky comments would get 20, 40 retweets, at minimum.Then one day many of my tweets would get zero retweets, or 3.
When Twitter suspended me, I didn't bother getting unsuspended, because I knew they'd already blocked my tweets from 99% of all potential readers.
So why bother even using their piece of shit data-exploitation antisocial media?
I would like Twitter to be quizzed heavily about this when they come before Congress to testify. Many conservatives are shadowbanned -- Mollie Hemingway seems to be. Michelle Malkin seems to be.
And even Senator Ted Cruz seems to be.
If this is not actually an open forum, they ought to say so.
It's a simple matter of honest disclosure..."
