And Twitter is somehow safer?

Obviously not.

If you're saying this because Snowden said wait he said on Twitter, I'm sorry but I wouldn't know. Not because I didn't try to read the article, I did, but because my custom DNS flagged cointelegraph.com as being malignant and blocked it. True story.

Edit: cointelegraph, not "cointelegram."

Cointelegraph might not be for someone who is very anti-crypto, but it's a legit website with well researched articles, not a source of malware/scams/autogenerated spam.

Their custom DNS is very ant-crypto. Janet Yellen is the personal resolver.

It's a fearmongering website design to scare people into buying crypto.

Their articles that aren't about crypto get spammed to social media a lot. It's to get traffic on their site and hope they can hook some.

While I can't recommend this site for general news, the article in question is pretty well written.
