    Today, Twitter is rolling out a new notice for tweets belonging to public figures that break its community guidelines. Now, if a figure like President Donald Trump were to tweet something that broke Twitter’s rules, the platform could notify users of the violation and lessen the reach of the tweet. In recent interviews, Twitter executives have hinted that a change like this would be coming soon.

    This notice will only apply to tweets from accounts belonging to political figures, verified users, and accounts with more than 100,000 followers. If a tweet is flagged as violating platform rules, a team of people from across the company will decide whether it is a “matter of public interest.” If so, a light gray box will appear before the tweet notifying users that it’s in violation, but it will remain available to users who click through the box. In theory, this could preserve the tweet as part of the public record without allowing it to be promoted to new audiences through the Twitter platform.

    Trump is going to meltdown hard over this.

    Absolutely insane that it's come to this, but probably a good approach.

    I'm by no means for censorship, but I've talked to many of his die hard supporters that are ready for him to shut the up on twitter.

    See a tweet takes 2 minutes
    Congress is off 2/3 of the year
    I think him tweeting is ok
    The media is over 90 negative with him
    If you put a d in front of him the media would be 90 percent positive

    They're probably exhausted from sacrificing their dignity coming to his defense on everything.

    I prefer they have to live with it.

    Of course. And I don't think Trump should abandon Twitter. He'd send shockwaves if he posted on minds and gab exclusively one day per week.

    Sure, Gab's got a great reputation and wouldn't hurt Trump at all...

    Thanks for illustrating Twitter's rationale for its rules so succinctly

    There is a difference between bad things that are illegal and bad things that hurt feelings.
