I suspect it’s me. A good dozen of my tweets have been “restricted.” I’m not sure if this is some coward reporting me repeatedly, or Twitter internally throttling my account semi-automatically, or manual internal edits, or what...

This is easily believable. Not only is it SOP on Twitter; I would NOT be surprised to be told that it was the doing of a Wikipedia insider.

You want "free speech"? Don't go on Twitter. It's the most broken "discussion forum" I've ever seen.

Then again, maybe they're finally starting to perfect the vaunted Dumbass filter...
