The twitter thing where the Homeland Security account is being run out of Israel is so scripted, it's actually sad that so many people are falling for it.
Twitter and Elon Musk are actually the government.
They don't usually let things 'slip' or make silly mistakes.
You can write a 5-minute test to ensure that something like this doesn't happen when rolling out these features (and they have).
They want you to talk about this account being supposedly run out of Israel (which is possible, but nonconsequential) and not talk about the stealth digital ID rollout.
Before you know it, they're gonna ask you to full-on KYC for reach, and every non-KYC'd account is going to get throttled into the abyss.
It's not very important whether Israel is running the Homeland security account, what matters is the upcoming AI governance regime that these platforms are slowly implementing.
I'll write more on what AI governance is but you're seeing the implementation of "Content provenance":
- C2PA-like (Coalition for content provenance and authenticity) signing at OS/camera/browser; unsigned content rate-limited or downranked.
- CDN filters: provenance + policy tags required for distribution at scale.
Everyone knows how poisonous Israhell is at this point, but the coming AI governance regime is what they don't want you to talk about.
