I like the data they had to release under new EU regulations so far. For example, they have a single employee that speaks my native language, which is sixth most-spoken among languages of the European Union. It definitely shows when trying to report things like "kill yourself" posts, which apparently is OK with both Twitter terms of service and local law (that one came as surprise to me and would probably surprise lawyers as well).
Yeah, they really fucked up with the automated messages saying something doesn't violate the rules.
Because that's a paper trail that twitter looked at something and decided not to remove it.
They'd be covering their own ass better if those didn't get sent, at least they could pretend they hadn't looked at it yet and kept it a grey area
They can't ignore reports and have to allow at least one follow-up dispute per EU regulations. Unfortunately there's no dedicated government office here for escalating it further (unlike Germany for example) but I imagine giving Digital Services Act more teeth will come with time.
