So I guess now you can get your tweets pushed without disclosing that you payed for it…?
That's a bingo
"We just say bingo"
Ah that makes more sense.
That must be the true reason behind this move
I am asking myself the same thing. But unless it’s actually advertising I guess the answer is yes.
Might get interesting with twitter gold or whatever color the brand checkmate is.
Why were you asking yourself that. How would it possibly be illegal?
How would that be illegal? What law in which country would have anything to do with how a privately owned company handles that?
Twitter can do whatever the hell they want on their own website. They have no obligation to be fair in whatever they decide to boost or hide (with the exception of outright illegal content, obviously).
They're Xes, not tweets.
