Until the button edits the tweets, Twitter would include a function to clarify the "errors"

Twitter badyze how to be more flexible without this virtue goes against the authenticity and the "real-time" nature of its platform. In addition, how to open the faucet tweets edition without this leading to abusive behavior?

In the face of these challenges, the social network blue bird badesses a long time ago (and now the speculations are stronger) to include a button to edit the messages already published. An option that, once implemented, will have conditions.

In addition, Twitter studies a function to clarify the "gaffes" immortalized in the social network. Some older with less than 140 characters, and some newer ones who may have taken advantage of the new 280 character limit.

Clarification of tweets: nothing confirmed

Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter, said at an event held in San Francisco, United States, that he was evaluating the introduction of a function for "clarify tweets"

What happens when a person changes their mind about a relevant (or irrelevant) question? Does Twitter offer a simple way to pick up an opinion or comment made on the social network, on which the user wants to rediscuss or rethink, or even refute his past point of view?

According to the executive, at that time, "there is no credible way to go back and clarify, or even have a conversation to show the learning or the transition since".

In practice, the idea is to add to the platform the possibility of adding an explanation, a clarification or a comment with retention to the original tweet. In addition, the original publication can only be retweeted in its context, that is with the addition.

It should be noted that these Dorsey statements (like the previous ones, which referred to the button for editing tweets) are options discussed by the social network. In any case, it is not an announcement or a confirmation. It may be a kick that seeks the comments of the tweeter community.

As the site emphasizes Recode, the idea seems more like a thought out loud from the CEO of Twitterfar from being a decision taken. In this sense, Dorsey said, "I'm not saying we're going to launch it, but these are questions we ask ourselves."
