Like, Renaud's proposal has nothing to do with Threads or Meta saying "hey, we've moderation tools we could maybe open up if you want them"

In fact, his proposal is still at the stage it was last year (much like FIRES), because we had to wait for funding.

And it certainly isn't favouring Meta, just enabling anyone who wants to build more advanced, possibly automated tools, for enhancing moderation teams.

It's a direct reaction to those demanding spam tooling.

It's also hella interesting to see this cropped poll result because the last options were "no" options which actually received a significant portion of the votes, but the poll now appears to be deleted (or I just can't find it anymore)

Like, it's one thing to run a poll snd get unfavourable results, it's another thing to crop the poll responses to portray it as giving favourable results.

Edit: Thanks to @laurenshof for the full results: infosec.exchange/@thenexusofpr

@thisismissem as I posted last night... the conspiracy theories and other speculations are (as you rightly pointed out in this thread) exhausting! macaw.social/@andypiper/112350

@thisismissem This is a seriously disingenuous crop to do and not explicitly disclaim what you did and why.
