While Meta is blocking news links, it is doing so because it doesn't want to pay for them. The bill essentially forces Meta to pay for something it doesn't want to pay for and would rather opt out. https://about.fb.com/news/2023/06/changes-to-news-availability-on-our-platforms-in-canada/ https://www.michaelgeist.ca/2023/08/metablockslinks/

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/1688878860702453761
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.
