    Seems a reasonable response to the revelations of the "Twitter Files," which showed how many non-Twitter employees had been empowered to moderate content on the platform previously.

    "Internal documents show how X content moderators are no longer authorised to take action against accounts posting racist, sexist, and homophobic content"

    Huh! I thought Must had fired all these moderators.

    Reduce reach but doesn't penalize accounts seems a pretty reasonable compromise. Most of this article is just "things I don't like should be illegal" which is no standard for a society to live by.
