Twitter considered allowing adult content creators to sell subscriptions while taking a cut. The company concluded that it could not quote accurately detect child sexual exploitation and non-consensual nudity at scale. Karen: I think the timing is really convenient in light of the arguments that Musk is trying to make in order to weasel out of the deal.
George Hahn is back for our final Scott-Free August episode! Kara and George discuss Twitter's big changes (hello, Edit Button!), Snap’s disappearing staffers, and a photo shoot that may have laid Trump's secrets bare. Also, Elon Musk subpoenaed the Twitter whistleblower. Dr. Jeffrey Swisher joins to talk about long COVID, Monkeypox, and Kara's first cigarette.
You can find George on Twitter at @georgehahn, and Jeffrey at @jeffreyswisher.
