23% of adults are said to “use Twitter”, but just half say they check in each day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the old Twitter (now X), it was said the half-life of a tweet was about 15 minutes – meaning half of the views most tweets received were within 15 minutes of posting the tweet. That makes sense due to the volume of tweets and how the timeline works. That suggests most tweets – except from prominent accounts which may be favored by “the algorithm” and tweets that are widely re-shared, probably do not get so many views.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then, how many of such tweets are believed?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n At the end of the day, “disinformation” tweets might not be seen and believed as much as some think they are – and possibly do not have much impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But at the end of the above story, they get to their main objective: Musk bought Twitter and X no longer censors everything at the request of government agencies. The mainstream media preferred when the platform was censored – with “free speech” limited to “the press” and not the public. In a world of censorship, who gets to choose the censor?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ultimately, the above story (read all of it) turns into a hit piece on Musk – with disinformation as the excuse for the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
