Twitter censors user's tweet about the BBC: A Twitter user shared a meme that said: "Is that true? Or did you hear it on the BBC?" The meme was censored with a sensitive content filter. Additionally, the user's account seems to have had an account-level sensitive content flag added to it, because when viewing the profile, the first thing that a user sees is: "Caution: This profile may include potentially sensitive content. You're seeing this warning because they Tweet potentially sensitive images or language. Do you still want to view it?" Users must then click the "Yes, view profile button to continue on to the user's profile. The account, known as @Carbongate and located in Scotland, included this bio: "Climate Realist. BSc. Biology / Earth and Environmental Science." The account at the time of this incident had 26,700 followers, and has since been suspended for an unknown reason or time period.
