@arstechnica Stone Toss? Do you mean Hans Kristian Graebener of Spring, TX
It's important to attribute the right person to a work, isn't it?
If Banksy's idenitity can be made public for "the public interest" then so can Stone Toss.
@arstechnica Elon lies again.
@qhstone @arstechnica really? How you can be sure that's actually the correct information?
@arstechnica ah, the keyboard layout in the banner for the article is QWERTZ — which German language users use.
@arstechnica i misread the headline and thought that twitter had banned the actual nazi
@arstechnica Remind me, why does anyone besides racists and bigots still use exTwitter?
@arstechnica I still open twitter/X sometimes and is such a shitshow

@arstechnica This is a fantastic article, folks!
Provide the story, relevant context, and then closes with the larger pattern of behaviour and what it might foretell in future.

Just A+ work all around. This is what reporting should always look like.
