The reason why Twitter labels some government employees and official media is to allow users to better understand the specific situation of the accounts controlled by this person.
We know that in recent days, Twitter has begun to label some government officials and official media from five countries: China, the United States, France, Russia and the United Kingdom. However, many netizens expressed that Twitter’s behavior The behavior is completely a proper trademark behavior. For example, Twitter labeled an account that live broadcasts live on a major platform and labeled it as a Chinese media, but it did not label some media accounts owned by American international media as an American media. The label is completely targeted.
But of course Twitter will not admit that it has double standards. After all, Twitter is the dominant social network platform in the United States and its dominance must be in the hands of the United States. Of course, it will not hold its own gun. If he targets his own people, he must be targeting others, and this labeling operation also further shows his views on China, so we also hope that China can retaliate immediately.
Twitter stated that the reason for labeling these media this time is to allow users to understand the specific situation of these official media entities and accounts representing certain governments. To put it bluntly, it is to let people know which media personnel are from China, which media personnel are from the United States, and which people represent France and Russia. These labels include information about the country to which the account belongs, and whether these accounts are operated by state-authorized media. .
In fact, these labels are equivalent to a regional certification, and they also give you an official mark, so that users can more clearly know which country these accounts belong to and which countries they are promoting. , and currently all five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council have been labeled. The accounts of these labels include those of government officials, as well as the foreign ministers and ambassadors of these countries. The ID numbers are equivalent to all representative countries. Media accounts that do not represent individuals are tagged.
I can’t express my opinion on this move. I think it’s a good idea to put labels on them so that American users know which accounts are Chinese. It might bring more traffic to Chinese accounts. Because I think this can also help the American people understand China better and know that some of the policies China has made are not as American politicians say. It can help the American people see the nature of the world clearly, instead of just listening to those American policies. The media is making things up there.
