Sources: Twitter has eliminated ~4,400 of its ~5,500 contract staff, with cuts expected to significantly impact content moderation and the core infrastructure  —  Update: company sources tell me that yesterday Twitter eliminated ~4,400 of its ~5,500 contract employees, with cuts expected to have significant impact to content moderation and the core infrastructure services that keep the site up and running. People inside are stunned.
