Those are words a US District Court Judge said to Twitter’s attorney, Ari Holtzblatt, during a February hearing about Donald Trump’s Twitter data. Holtzblatt had no idea:
MR. HOLTZBLATT: It is similar to tweets, and I don’t know more than that, Your Honor.
THE COURT: You don’t use “fleets.”
MR. HOLTZBLATT: I had not heard of fleets until this morning.
THE COURT: And was fleet used on this account?
MR. HOLTZBLATT: It is a vanishing tweet.
THE COURT: A vanishing tweet.
MR. HOLTZBLATT: I guess fleet — that makes sense, fleeting.
Yes, Mr. Holtzblatt. It sure does.
