The sixth installment showed that “Twitter’s contact with the FBI was constant and pervasive, as if it were a subsidiary,” wrote Matt Taibbi. … “Between January 2020 and November 2022, there were over 150 emails between the FBI and former Twitter Trust and Safety chief Yoel Roth.”

But it also has revealed, with the release of the supplementary material, that the FBI was apparently becoming unhappy with some of Twitter’s responses and that they were seeking more in the way of specific written answers to their concerns that Twitter was not monitoring the “propaganda” as efficiently as the FBI wanted. …

One message from San Francisco FBI agent Elvis Chan asked Roth, “In what ways and by what measures do you see official propaganda actors as less active than other groups on your platform?”; “What groups are you comparing to official propaganda actors?” and “What quantitative metrics do you use to judge volume of activity on your platform? On what scale? Can you provide these metrics?” …

In a separate email, Roth questioned the FBI’s raising these questions, saying that Twitter had made clear that “official state propaganda is definitely a thing on Twitter.”
