Twitter censors user over term "poison pill": A Twitter user shared a screenshot of his censorship notice. The user was responding to the day's Dilbert cartoon. In it, the boss tells a worker, "Elon Musk doubled his offer to buy our company. He's now at six hundred dollars. The board voted to create a 'poison pill' to thwart the takeover. Pass around these pills and tell everyone to wait for the signal." The user tweeted "@Dilbert_Daily The Daily Strip, in Haiku. Hostile takeovers. There's only one solution. Take a poison pill. #TruthisinHaiku." Twitter's terrible AI algorithm determined that this violated its rules, though it was unclear from the screenshot which rule was violated. The user's account was locked until he deleted the tweet.
