I had to get a background check for my job, and it turns out the report is a 300+ page pdf of every single tweet I’ve ever liked with the work “fuck” in it.

Enjoy your dystopian bs! *waves*
UPDATE: I came home to a package containing a *printout* of all 351 pages of it! Obv the dystopia cares about wasting paper.
On the plus side I can now save these for posterity
“Flag: language, bigotry, sexism” Wow ok this system works sooo well I’m glad you think this tweet reflects poorly on my character.
The positive flags section is equally good:
To those asking- I did not give them my handle or permission, I'm assuming they just found this via my (old) name.
The especially creepy part is this didn't turn up anything at all relevant or incriminating! I keep personal info on my non-public accounts. But their shitty algorithm means that my "reputation" and "character" is flagged as questionable and sent to my boss.
Also ironic: the algorithm flagged the word “hell” and flagged this theological commentary in relation to a job... teaching theology...
