Twitter working on new censorship shtick: ‘misinformation’ warning labels

On May 31 9TO5Mac revealed the Brave New World of Twitter censorship via warning labels that is almost upon us in "Twitter is working on three different misinformation warning labels."

Twitter is working on misinformation warning labels, according to the researcher Jane Manchun Wong.

After introducing the “read before you retweet” pop-up, the social network is now working on three levels of misinformation warning labels:

“Get the latest”

“Stay Informed”

"Misleading"

According to researcher Wong, Twitter will prompt one of the three warning labels depending on the tweet content.
