Disinformation or misinformation “posted by public figures will be corrected directly beneath the tweet by fact-checkers & journalists who are verified on the platform, & possibly other users who will participate in a new ‘community reports’ feature”

Scoop: Leaked Twitter Demo Shows Bright Red Banners to Indicate Lies, Disinformation Beneath Tweets

Twitter tells me it's a possible iteration of something that will roll out on March 5. Possible community moderation coming, too.

If it works, should have a great impact on the spread of misinfo. "The leaked demo also shows an example of medical misinformation, including an example about the coronavirus by a verified Twitter account." https://t.co/6F0eCpAZfE
This is so insidious on so many levels—turn users into snitches & petty Zhdanovs to censor anyone who strays from Official Opinions, use "the community" as cover to shield Twitter's real censors from US gov't-funded fact-check syndicates. https://t.co/NSvFcLOpc9

Here's what the community reporting tool could look like.
— Ben Collins (@oneunderscore__) February 20, 2020
Two schools of thought on community moderation:
—Without checks, it could be brigaded by bad actors, as most things do. But!
—Bad actors could get scarlet letter'd by abusing the reports functionhttps://t.co/Yhyv45WFjG pic.twitter.com/cE3CJJA0hB
The test also shows a "Community Reports" feature for disinformation.
— Ben Collins (@oneunderscore__) February 20, 2020
This could include "points" that would heavily weight useful "reports" of disinfo on the platform. The demo says it's "like Wikipedia."
Twitter reiterated this is just an option.https://t.co/Yhyv45WFjG pic.twitter.com/ZdnLqXqU5h

Twitter is considering a system by which verified accounts can "fact check" tweets and label them as "harmfully misleading" to "combat disinformation". Given the way a great number of blue ticks behave on here, it's evident to see how this would be abused. https://t.co/KMQwOAeKkj
