2023-06-08 20:40:13 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

There is no evidence that the 2023 Canadian wildfires were started by devices dropped from drones. This conspiracy theory likely started from a tweet from @realstewpeters showing a helicopter carrying a helitorch - used for backfires, burnouts, or prescribed burns. https://twitter.com/realstewpeters/status/1665906775097331715 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2023_Canadian_wildfires

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1666657285157036032

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
