You likely caught grey-text flu because TFA doesn't mention the word "censorship" at all. Perhaps you're on the wrong thread?

I'm referring to the general, overall discussion of this issue. I thought I was being clear about that. But perhaps I was not. Apologies for that. :)

people get their twitter accounts locked for having incidental background music playing in shared content. This is an amazingly punitive action for a trivial mistake, and Twitter's hands are effectively tied on this (the copyright mafia won this war a long time ago).

No one's forcing people to break Twitter's rules, they should have read them before they broke them.

Isn’t that twitch? Twitter is text only AFAIK. There is no background music there.

you can share videos on Twitter. There is a huge contingent of complaints from people banned / suspended on Twitter for DMCA concerns. Examples:
