What is CrowdTangle
Well it says in the title, so….
We are at the point where people don't even read the entire headline.
We're at the point of what?
the title doesn't explain shit. Sure it's a "tool for election integrity observer" but that's barely an explanation. Incredibly broad. Can still be a lot of things. Sounds as if Facebook is guarding the entire election
CrowdTangle is Meta's tool for election integrity, they're shutting it down without a replacement.
Don't encourage the behaviour. As the saying goes... Give a man a fish and you've fed him for a day... Teach a man to fish and you've fed him for life.
I literally rearranged the headline wording
👍 Precisely.
Or to quote Terry Pratchett:
Give a man a fire and he'll be warm for a day; set a man on fire and he'll be warm for the rest of his life.
Fool me once, shame on me, but teach a man to fool me and I'll be fooled for the rest of my life.
I read the title but that barely says anything. It's extremely broad
