Your life isn’t in the hands of twitter. It’s in the hands of NYPD, an institution designed to protect the public.
While it’s certainly nice to have, we shouldn’t have an expectation that a private business to defend us from the corruption of the police. Like, that’s a much bigger problem that Twitter does or doesn’t do
>It’s in the hands of NYPD, an institution designed to protect the public.
It's not at all designed to protect the public; in the US the police don't even have a legal duty to protect the public. It's designed to enforce the law.
I'm afraid I don't get your point either. Hit man?
The police overreached here, and the only thing that protected the victim was, of all things, Twitter.
The police are supposed to be the good guys, but that obviously wasn't the case here. My comment was merely expressing surprise at the irony of the situation.
