wtf?
"European organizations are about to launch their own social media platform, W, amid rising tensions with the United States."

Good luck getting w.anything - I thought 1-character domain names weren't allowed? (apart from sneaky "X.com" of course)
@chewie Bwahahahaha 馃槄
That swedish company should've called it "L". What a stupid, totalitarian idea (they can shovel their identity validation and clear names where the sun never shines).
@chewie
> The new platform, W, will require identification and photo validation to ensure that its users are both humans and who they claim to be, Danish news media outlet Politiken.dk reports.
Politicians may love this idea, but no one else will, so they will be posting only to each other
@ophiocephalic @chewie
Haha oh they can keep that then 馃憤
Good idea: don't include a share button?
Too late now, I know
Sharing should require some effort, thought even?
Twitter, FB and the world went into death spiral after the share buttons were introduced?
People not algorithms or bots share most misleading information?
