Twitter is 'ghost-deleting' potentially offensive tweets still visible to the user posting them

Twitter has reportedly started "ghost-deleting" tweets as part of its crackdown on offensive content. The company recently announced a new set of safety features designed to protect users from online abuse, including something called'safe search'. This hides tweets containing "potentially sensitive content" and tweets from blocked and muted accounts from users' search results, though Twitter said that the content will continue to exist. However, according to Twitter user @SuperNerdCow, the site has gone a step further, hiding one of his tweets from all users, even when they enter the update's URL. Twitter has ghost-deleted my Tweet.
