Yoel RothHonored to represent the field of trust and safety in today’s House Oversight Committee hearing. The stakes for this work — for national security, and for the future of the internet — couldn’t be higher. https://oversight.house.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Roth-House-Oversight-opening-statement-V4-Final.pdf
Warner Crocker@yoyoel Great job in that craziness today.

@yoyoel Unfortunately the House Oversight Committee appeared to be little more than taxpayer funded anger management therapy for House Republicans.
Jorge Caballero, MDYoel posting this on Mastodon while Twitter is down serves as a glimmer of proof that the moral arc of the universe bends toward justice

So sorry for the all the harassment you have received for trying to make Twitter more pro-social.

Jeff@yoyoel total crap GQP wants control over internet more government
Kate Starbird@yoyoel Thank you for your service and sacrifice Yoel.
AugustaJohnson@yoyoel Heard a snippet of this Twitter testimony today. My heart goes out to you. We are mostly here because of the dumpster fire that Twitter became, and I am horrified by what you personally went through
husbandpanda 🐼@yoyoel you've done what you can and the timing of the issue is as pressing as ever, but I highly doubt house oversight cares at the moment. mr Dick Pics James Comer is a problem and the chair. https://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/1623406379858894849 & https://www.emptywheel.net/2023/02/02/james-comers-dick-pics-hearing-just-became-an-alleged-stolen-laptop-hearing/
Tim Chambers@yoyoel Thank you so much for your testimony today. And completely agree with your post.
SpaceLifeFormThank you for enduring the bullshit threats.
vickie salter@yoyoel You were grace under fire from the unstable person from Georgia. I’m very sorry that happened to you.
Yael Grauer@yoyoel thank you for you work and sacrifices; so sorry you have to deal with all that. 💕

Bjorn Dingleberry@yoyoel you did well by yourself
AleggraPlease get a good lawyer and sue the fuck out of MTG. She defamed you in public. Legal definition of defamation:
Any false communication that harms a person's reputation; decreases the respect, regard, or confidence in which a person is held; or induces disparaging, hostile, or disagreeable opinions or feelings against a person.
Defamation may be a criminal or civil charge. It encompasses both libel and spoken statements called slander.
Tina@yoyoel I'm sorry for the way you were treated by some members of the committee.
Tara Briscoe@yoyoel Thank you for facing the political circus to cut through the perverse propaganda and ensure the public knows the facts. Especially in the face of ongoing personal security threats, and pathetic attempts at intimidation by elected officials.
@yoyoel refusing to remove a lewd video of two underage boys, even after the mother of one of them requested you to do so? What's up with that?
Max@yoyoel You all did great. I don't know how one keeps their composure in front of MTG but well played. Side note you and the hubby make the cutest duo. 💚
skry@yoyoel Thank you so much for your dedication and service to privacy.
I'm glad you moved out of harm's way, but very angry that you were targeted for just doing your job. I hope you get some justice and peace.
Sagittarius A*@yoyoel hey man i think its great that you have to sit in front of republicans and explain why you didn't bend over backwards *enough* for republicans.
something to think about next time:
don't let them work the refs. (that's you, btw.)
@yoyoel long time Twitter lurker that never actually tweeted. I'm an independent (not that it matters) and have been reading all of the Twitter files and just wanted to say that I admire the way you handled almost everything when at Twitter and now. The posted screenshots from the Twitter files and your testimony at these hearings have only showed you as an honest, rational person doing their job.
Dave LaMacchia@yoyoel watched this live and have so much respect and admiration for you all giving testimony about the important work done during our time at Twitter.
Mary P G Keating@yoyoel
Good to see you.
Good to see you.
Andy Wentland@yoyoel Thank you for everything you've done.
Rabbi Jill Zimmerman@yoyoel I hope you’ve recovered from that very painful hearing. I mean, circus.
David Venter ✪@yoyoel you doing okay? You’ve been awfully quiet lately. Hope all is well! ✌️💛
