Looks like they got got by Elon for this post, RIP
Not like it's anything we didn't expect but it's nice when it's provable
Edit: due diligence being what it is, it may just be fake as some more tech minded users have pointed out
Ir's almost comedic how far Elon and his gang of Nazis go to be racist shitheads.
Link to source or at least confirm the user handle? The most I can read is TheAntifaTurtle which has account suspended. At least the picture being screenshotted.
HackerNews post. Dunno if it's real, does twitter really store this stuff in okta + own
twitter.okta.com
?Gonna call this fake news. Just the idea to every scrap of evidence presented is fake.
- probably fake twitter account. Never heard of it before. Someone should be complaining about them being suspended if they weren't.
- config values are way too short for a production environment. Clearly made so you could get a summary. There'd be way more users listed.
- actually bothering to list out individual slurs just wouldn't work. Slur filters would be disabled eniterly with a single setting.
- theres zero reason to put this data on okta instead of internally
- There's zero benefit to letting Andrew Tate say the n-word on twitter. Unless its only for DMs we'd know.
This only makes sense if elon did it himself completely zonked on mushrooms and ketamine, which is possible though.
That's how Okta/Auth0 tenants usually appear. I cannot come up with a good reason for this info to be in Okta to begin with but maybe it's legit.
I'm not buying it. The allowed shitheads list is too short, especially after you remove duplicates by the person behind them. Somebody as online as
follows way more shitheads than that. The allowed words don't make sense, or their being somehow disallowed in the first place doesn't make sense. Mexican? That's too commonly used in a neutral/positive context and as if Musk would give a shit about it being used in a negative one. ch******ng? Are we on a playground in the early 80s? Abbie? I don't even get the context, what, that's a regular-ass first name for white people.
It makes zero sense. My conclusion is its election season so the dems have their trolls out as well. If there's gonna be a time to try a mass AI bot campaign, its now.
You think you just fell out of a server farm? You exist in the context of all in which you post and the campaigns that came before you.
...Yes? that they are suspended is the point? Want me to link the same account you found? Like, what? lol
That I managed to save this post as a screenshot, you should count youself lucky, if I tried to click on the post it just said user suspended
I was mostly asking to see if I got the account name right. Its a little cut off at the end.
When your slur whitelist includes both variants of the n-word: yeah, it's
time
You might want to CW the post, even though you have to zoom in to see all the slurs
You wouldn't store user accounts on Okta; that's what you'd use to store employee permissions and access. Not saying for sure this is fake, but it seems unlikely.
I remember there was some leaks early on during the Twitter transfer and shit was written really plain like this, but I know nothing about coding so
It was some of the "Twitter files" stuff, I dont know enough about it to compare properly lol

Is this just a joke or something? Seems like the list would be a lot longer if it were real, especially the slurs
pasting from my comment on the c/main post:
I don't think okta mainly works like this (it's an internal company account SSO software provider, not something you'd use for your user's accounts), so this is instantly sus. Happy to be wrong though but be careful sharing this around until there's more info.
The only time stuff like this has been released before was when it was given to journalists* on purpose.
*Matt Taibbi was once a real journalist
I remember pre Musk when Twitter was very good about blocking bigotry.
