Limiting the visibility of Tweets means that they may not appear in certain parts of the Twitter product, and/or may not be recommended or amplified by Twitter. Some of the ways we may do this include:
making Tweets ineligible for amplification in Top Search results and on Trends; not recommending Tweets in timelines of users who don’t follow the Tweet author; downranking Tweets in replies; and excluding Tweets and/or accounts in email or in-product recommendations.
