Twitter’s content moderation head quits as departures alarm the FTC

The resignations of three Twitter security executives prompted federal regulators to warn they might step in.

The Washington Post

2/2. When fines it was also made subject to consent decrees placing obligations on named individuals (? The team that walked out) to ensure privacy compliance and notification to the FTC.

Seems likely, with Musk’s latest blue tick wheeze that they are already in breach.

Hence walk out?

FTC are paying attention. It can fine $ billions.

Watch this space.

@GregorxxxSamsa mmmm. Doesn’t feel that way to me
@Fascinatorfun
He must have some kind of strategy to save the deal.
