Is this a step to censoring public communication?

Twitter is already doing it, it has been censoring posts from the beginning. Yet they allow things to stimulate and stir up confusions, dissension, division, and anger. It's a conglomerate of propaganda.

Absolutely. Even the concept of "conversational health" sounds Orwellian.

@jack is putting a smiley face on censorship. Subjective opinions on the ‘health’ of the conversation, no matter who does it, is censorship and not free speech. Just another cover for squelching opinions the left doesn’t like. -
As long as people aren’t threatening violence, like
@RepMaxineWaters and@CoryBooker,@jack should stand down and let people have discussions of differing opinions. Simple concept.

The problem is people like
@jack and other overlords have convinced themselves that we need to be nannied and shown the way. Truth is we just want to be left the hell alone to make our own decisions. Less is more. In time, they'll end up being a memory like MySpace. - 1 more reply

How about just let people tweet whatever they want and leave it up to us to block the bad apples?

Bad idea. Free speech is only free when it isn't scrutinized by any party. That's different than rules of civility and privacy.

Thinking that this is not free speech. Let people decide via the block buttons, etc. Nobody needs to pay consultants - that is for show
-
if users had to use their real names and those were verified, the number of trolls would drop dramatically. All without a 3rd party or consultant.

I would never use my real name.

I can manage my own conversations and associations. In fact, I believe it’s my first amendment right. Maybe child porn, gang activity, and nut balls who are threatening people would be good things to look into?

I'm a third party. I promise I'm completely unbiased and will determine fairness and equity, both fairly and equitably. Also, I will determine the validity of any and all information purporting to be "news" and determine acceptability. For free!

Measure the health of conversations=Silencing Conservatives. Who does he think he's fooling?


-
Given the low opinion he and his Twitter engineers & academics have of conservatives, “all the conservatives” is his answer. Casting censorship as a public health issue is just a ploy to deflect criticism, since who can oppose “improving the health of public conversation...”

Who do these people think they are to decide what's healthy for me to read or hear? Just another attack on 1A dressed up in Socialist foo-foo, feel good language. Awww we're gonna protect your itty bitty feewings from the mean ol' people on the internet.
