Disturbing development at Twitter: countries will silence tweets

Here’s Twitter: “Until now, the only way we could take account of those countries’ limits was to remove content globally. Starting today, we give ourselves the ability to reactively withhold content from users in a specific country — while keeping it available in the rest of the world. We have also built in a way to communicate transparently to users when content is withheld, and why.” This is not a good thing.

Now China will never learn about the super important topics that most Americans are talking about like, #thingsthataresexy or #30WaysToMakeAGirlSmile.
But in all seriousness, fuck.
