So for you,

Typing a suggestion into an internet page = to hurt or frighten someone, forcing them to do something?

how do you watch YouTube?

Do you feel compelled to recreate every video you watch?

So the gold standard for “dangerous misinformation” is whatever you decide to call “dangerous misinformation”.

Do you have any “Actual Information” to back up your call?

If so, share it.

Asking for silence and defending it with buzzwords like “dangerous misinformation” adds literally zero

Making a suggestion is “bullying” now?

Get a grip

Yes you can

"Misleading Info Reporting Flow - Some of you can report Tweets for containing misinformation. This is currently available in limited testing to some people in Australia, Brazil, the Philippines, South Korea, Spain, and the US, though we are exploring how to expand. These reports are reviewed and acted on independently from other Tweet reporting flows (e.g. for abuse), as this test flow is used to inform our misinformation-related strategy and operations. "

1. "it takes months/years....but taking months is laughable" -?????

2. You could say this about any startup in YC. "If XXXXX then YYYY would do it".

3. Again, you could say this about any startup founder.

Seriously

I guess you commented without even reading?

Looks like the independent thinking isn’t strong with you.

Which part was dumb? How about hoax? Which conspiracy?

Sit down and let people talk using their minds if you are unable to activate yours

Hi guys

Nice to see an african business on here. In east Africa we have a few in this space like sokowatch and copia. Are these fair comparisons?

“ If you don’t do any of this, I’m going to.”????
According to Wikipedia Francisco group sold out of NSO in 2019, is that correct?
I think you are getting unwarranted downvotes. If you are someone with a dislike of information you can just ignore it... downvotes unnecessary.

I love this site, but it could use Ratings functionality. I want to know what other users think about the courses.
Very nice program.

Would be great to incorporate learning tracks like treehouse -

let the user decide what songs they want to learn - and keep track of how they are doing on their goals

what kind of business specifically was it if you don't mind me asking? Are there still low hanging fruit like that around?
