Twitter users have fun after seeing tweets with words 'frequency' and 'oxygen' prompt automatic COVID-19 fact-check

Twitter users had some fun on Friday upon seeing that tweets that contained the words "frequency" and "oxygen" were automatically slapped with a coronavirus fact-check label. The tech giant has been cracking down in recent months on tweets it perceives as spreading misinformation, most notably the fact-check it had placed on President Trump's tweets on mail-in voting. However, Twitter raised eyebrows when it labeled any tweet that had the two words "frequency" and "oxygen" with label that read "Get the facts about COVID-19," which takes users to a page from May 11 addressing a conspiracy theory that 5G technology was responsible for the spread of the virus. Many took the opportunity to get creative with tweets that prompted the automatic labeling.
