THE GHOSTED COLLECTION IS A MODERN AGE REFLECTION OF DIGITAL CENSORSHIP AND SOCIAL PROOF. TWITTER ACCOUNTS THAT ARE NOT VERIFIED OR DO NOT PAY FOR VERIFICATION ARE MORE OFTEN THAN NOT SUBJECT TO SOCIAL ABUSE, BEING GHOSTED, SHADOWBANNED, MEANING THEIR CONTENT IS SUPPRESSED BY ALGORITHMS AND THEIR ONLINE PRESENCE IS REDUCED TO A MERE SHADOW OF WHAT IT COULD BE WITH A VERIFIED CHECKMARK. THIS PROCESS HAS BECOME A SYMBOL OF THE SOCIAL HIERARCHY THAT EXISTS ON SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS, WHERE A LACK OF VERIFICATION CAN MAKE OR BREAK A USER'S CREDIBILITY.
