Birdwatch Note

2023-10-21 11:08:54 UTC - MISINFORMED_OR_POTENTIALLY_MISLEADING

The article is misleading because it compares Apple's Thunderbolt 4 cable with simple USB-C cables that do not meet the Thunderbolt 4 specification. For a fair and informative comparison, all cables should meet the Thunderbolt 4 specification. https://www.usbmemorydirect.com/blog/thunderbolt-same-as-usb-c/.

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/1714769113812267487

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.
