It wasn’t released as the main disinfo tool until after leadership changed.

So what? Clearly the tool was already thought of, worked on, and meant to ship. It had been announced. It’s absurd to think that had Twitter not been sold, they’d have simply done nothing with it.

    Because previous leadership didn’t have the courage or desire to put moderation in the hands of users.
