Image of a genome autosuspends you from Twitter

Oce you upload the image, you get immediately suspended with the justification that the post contains personal information. The weird thing is the image contains no text whatsoever, or anything for that matter that could associate the image as a genome. This is the COVID genome btw.

Surely: training dataset of "personal information" contained genome-related images.

Hmm. The "personal information" bit doesn't fit particularly well .

I'd bet on the image running afoul of something like an anti-steganography filter (except in this image the dots aren't actually hidden from human perception), and the "personal info" line is either an error or is intended as misdirection.

I mean, I suppose the unsavory folks doxxing others may be passing around and broadcasting that personal info in steganographic images (or, you know, as ordinary images), but I don't think that makes a lot of operational sense.

Very interesting...

Not at all qualified to even speculate on this so I would love to see what someone might think causes it. Surly a bug with a bot right? (vs someone manually setting a flag)

With Discord I could not send an image of a car because it was considered "adult". Automatic systems are not at all up to the task of properly identifying new images, only known existing hashes.

Maybe it's (mistakenly) flagged for copyright infringement?
