> Really?(!), how's that? It's a direct, verbatim quote from the (your?) blog post.

wow, now i think you're just trolling.

The direct quote was this:

>Twitter had an apparent and now resolved regression allowing CSAM to be posted to public profiles [...]

You then went on to make several statements/claims, such as:

1. "@elonmusk for making this one of their priorities when he let the sink in"

2. "it was quickly resolved"

3. An open question for the reader is "why was this ignored for almost a decade?".

Each one of those statements are incorrect readings of the report and none of them are justified by the quote you pulled from it.

On (1): There's no evidence that elon musk made this a priority. Given that it broke after he bought twitter and that they didn't detect that it broke and that it took weeks to fix it when they were informed of it, I think the evidence points to the exact opposite (i.e. it's not a priority).

On (2): weeks is not "quickly", and the "quickly" was your own thing, the report only says that it was resolved.

On (3): as you've been informed, this wasn't broken for almost a decade, it was broken after musk acquired twitter.
