but it is *not OK* to hell-ban or signal attenuate legit people with NO APPEAL and NO HUMAN and no notification! Think of what that is doing! Who is going to trust the media if their own efforts to communicate are being muffled?

SIGH. He's not being banned. Ding doesn't use the word "coronavirus." He uses the specific designation "COVID19", because that's the hashtag for the specific disease. Look what happens when you switch those terms.pic.twitter.com/CPDsgpmBRY

Twitter can't search for words someone doesn't use. And Ding—and I CAN'T believe I'm saying this—knows enough to know that coronavirus describes a kind of virus, not a specific outbreak/virus.pic.twitter.com/o2CZMUq7TW

Moreover, the way Twitter's search function works, as I understand it, is that it doesn't look at link thumbnails. So while some of the links he posts are to articles with "coronavirus" in them, Twitter can't "see" that information.

Eric Feigl-Ding is a fearmonger and a grifter, and I think he's a menace to society. But I respect him enough to know that he knows the difference between coronaviruses (which include the common cold), and COVID19 specifically. That's what's happening here.

This is insane, or disingenuous. Which are you?

Seriously, show us all what you see when you Twitter search "COVID19 eric feigl-ding". If he's nowhere to be seen, I'll rethink my hypothesis. In fact, I'd ask everyone to post screenshots of what they see when they search that. You know, just to be sure.

Lol you can't do it, can you? You found him easily because you have now done more than one search. Killing it.
