    People pointing out this doesn't specify the Russian "government." A few points on the conflation going on here...https://twitter.com/mtracey/status/925808054221901825 …

    According to Twitter’s criteria, a user is declared to have “links” to the Russian government if it “frequently tweets in Russian” pic.twitter.com/vscVNZBBUh

        Twitter's "review" was conducted to assess "Russian efforts to disrupt the 2016 election." US govt. says Russian govt. directed that effort.pic.twitter.com/dbtOBIKoFe

        When you assert that a person or entity is "Russian-linked," what are you asserting if not a linkage to the government?

        Which goes to show the ridiculousness of this criteria. If same were applied to the US, millions upon millions would be "US-linked."

        Having "links" to the United States in this context would be taken to mean "linkage" with the US Government.

        Persons and entities which for all practical purposes are not "linked" get purposely conflated under what Twitter calls "expansive" criteria

        Hence the fallacies underlying this "review," which is predicated on purposeful conflation and was conducted to appease US Govt. demands.

        Yet Cenk Uygur is literally name dropping Putin as personally responsible for scarce ads and fake BLM t-shirts. Can you snap sense into him?
