The latest post on ‘Mashable’ is titled “Twitter Now More Transparent About Copyright Takedowns”.

Kris Holt says, “Twitter has made a key change to how it handles copyright requests.

Rather than outright removing tweets at the heart of copyright takedown requests, Twitter is instead“withholding” them and adding a placeholder message to the tweet to let everyone know the copyright holder has asked Twitter to remove the content.

Twitter is carrying out the measure as it wants to be as transparent as possible with copyright claims. Itspartnership with Chilling Effects ensures that any Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) requests and cease and desist notices it receives are posted to that site for all to see”.
