This is an undisclosed ad for Elgato, which violates FTC guidelines. These guidelines state that an ad disclosure must be hard to miss and placed with the post itself. The link is an affiliate/tracking link presumably for the ad campaign, which also isn’t disclosed. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/documents/plain-language/1001a-influencer-guide-508_1.pdf

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/1862501324858040691

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.
