visibility 

What your boss says you will get when you get a promotion. It could be good, but often is bad when your boss hangs you out to dry. It is often an explanation why a pay raise doesn't come with that promotion.

Visibility Filtering 

Visibility Filtering, or VF, is a doublespeak term for shadow banning. It is the act of reducing the amount of views a post gets on social media by the company that owns the platform. Examples are: blocking searches of individual users; limiting the scope of a particular tweet’s discoverability; blocking select users’ posts from ever appearing on the “trending” page; and from being included in hashtag searches.
Think about visibility filtering as being a way for us to suppress what people see to different levels. It’s a very powerful tool,” one senior Twitter employee told us.
