It could be an internal cover up job as well. They could blame "hacks" for tweets that they didn't act on before.

We're they hacked or did a diversity hire give the controls up? Has anyone verified they were hacked besides Twitter?

A weakness exploited is still a hack. Social engineering is a thing.

It's Chrissy Teigen's fault.

What're the chances they just scorched-earth'ed all the checkmarks just to stop Trump from tweeting something really important today?

They are such zealots I wouldn’t be surprised if they were to do it for an extended time to prevent Trump from using it leading up to election, and forcing him to rely on msm more.

Does anyone really think twitter got hacked?

This thread is the very first I've heard of it so I don't have many facts, but it seems far-fetched.

But they wouldn't be the first company to put a women's studies major in charge of IT.

He has the national announcement thing if it’s REALLY important.

Seems like a golden opportunity for Trump to announce he’s using Parler or Gab going forward since Twitter can’t get their shit together.

There are lots of scenarios.

Let's say there is a democrat and a republican candidate for a given office. The republican candidate has an "objectionbable" tweet removed, but the democrat with a similar tweet does not. Twitter can claim that their servers were compromised by hackers, for who knows how long, and that they weren't intentionally interfering with elections.

This 100%

Every globalist or celeb who tweeted out a pedo # or dressed their kids up as pizza etc will use muh Russian hackers as an excuse
