Twitter censors user for imploring someone to beat a hockey team: In another example of the terrible AI algorithms that Twitter uses to enforce its censorship rules, a user shared a screenshot of an incredibly bad censorship notice. The user had tweeted: "Someone PLEASE beat the @TBLightning." The Tampa Bay Lightning is a hockey team. The user was asking for a hockey team to be beaten. In a game. Twitter found this tweet violated one of its rules, though the screenshots did not make clear which one. The user appealed the notice, and Twitter made the correct decision to reverse the censorship. The user reported that their account was locked for two hours before the decision was overturned.
