Twitter Extends Test of Hiding Replies to Tweets to the U.S., Japan

It officially began in Canada in July

Twitter is extending its test of enabling people to hide replies to their tweets to the U.S. and Japan.

The social network began unofficially testing the option as early as February, and it officially brought the test to Canada in July.
