twitter announced that it might be giving the option to make likes private and the number of people in a moral panic over "how will we hold people accountable now?" makes me want to send my computer across the rainbow bridge

Something tells me a lot of people we’re semi adjacent to online would have loved public hangings back when they were the main form of “justice”
What the fuck? What do people mean how will we hold people accountable because LIKES are private?! Bruh, Likes should have NEVER appeared on other peoples' timelines to begin with let alone having a Likes tab on people's profiles! Jesus fucking christ.
It's a fine idea, but it's born from people dunking on Elon for liking bizarro nonsense and conspiracy theories.
Literally everything done in the last year can be framed by the question "how does this personally help Musk?"
i'm at least a hundred times more concerned about all my peers trying to hold each other in a fucked up eternal panopticon than i am about what this means for elon musk tbh
the amount of people who have made alt accounts just to favorite porn without being judged.........
The ironic part is these same people would benefit from having likes set to private since they really want to convince everyone else they have nothing to hide.
