X works on option to block links in replies to posts – IT Pro – News

Of course they work interactively, but the goal is not to be the truth police and constantly enforce censorship according to the truth principles of the company’s owners, in this case X.

If X did that, people would comment on the frameworks in which X’s “truth police” operate, because they would be vulnerable to Musk’s personal bias.

The purpose of Community Notes is to allow users to block individuals (or accounts) who have been repeatedly and intentionally caught spreading misinformation if they do not want to see misinformation.

People who wish to continue to see this information are free to continue to do so.

Proactive, centralized, fact-based censorship, as set by the social media platform’s owners, is also suboptimal. Just look at the problems that have previously cropped up on Twitter, as documented in the “Twitter Files.”

Personally, I would prefer a situation where I could clean up my feed myself based on widespread, decentralized feedback on the accuracy of the content, rather than blindly trusting a big tech company to do it for me, hoping there’s no political agenda behind the moderation.

Then it remains transparent.
