the upcoming change is meant to protect users’ public image — because “many people feel discouraged” to like “edgy” content

It's just another Tuesday for MAGAts.
for fans of the electoral college! Nice! Modern! Exciting!

I would argue it's not that much of a secret if they're on Twitter but it'l be more difficult (not as hard as if it were encrypted, unless it *is encrypted but I wouldn't know if it was) for law enforcement and advocates to know specifically what people are following. Twitter however essentially allows that content and governments and advocates had been vocal about that fact so the fact people are following certain accounts such as what you named isn't secret, it's just.. which ones are they following?

My 8 year old niece texted to say she is going swimming with her friends tomorrow, equally valuable information for all of you.
Now Elon can like his favorite OF creators without anybody knowing it's him.
I'm excited for them to fuck it up and leave them vulnerable and I expect to see some very telling like changes over the couple days after they roll this out
