Twitter is getting more serious about its biannual transparency reports. The company today announced it’s expanding its reports’ scope with two new sections: trademark notices and the email privacy practices of several providers. It’s also rolling out a redesign for its transparency hub, making it a bit easier on the eyes on mobile and simplifying access to reports for individual countries. As for the most recent report itself, there are no huge surprises.

Julian Assange, known primarily for releasing a huge cache of politically sensitive information back in 2010, has been holed up in the Ecuadorian embassy for nearly five years for fear of being extradited to the US. During that same period, Assange has also been subject to claims of four sexual offences from women in Sweden.

A phone slams into an acoustic coupler on the desk. Screeching beeping sounds. Two people sitting side-by-side in front of a computer. One is a socially awkward nerd. The other is cooler, but dumber.
The nerd types something really fast on the keyboard. A rotating Necker cube appears on the green monochrome monitor. SECTOR-INFILTRATE SEQUENCE INITIATED. We see rapidly scrolling strings of hexadecimals reflected in the nerd’s wireframe glasses.
