 |  Twitter adds aliases to protect contributors to its Birdwatch fact check program Since the start of the year, Twitter has operated a pilot program called Birdwatch that has seen it crowdsource fact checks directly from other Twitter users. It’s now introducing a way for program participants to conceal their identity when they append a note to someone’s tweet. Starting today, the company says it will automatically generate aliases for new Birdwatch users that aren’t publicly associated with their Twitter accounts. https://www.engadget.com/twitter-bir...6.html?src=rss |
