Just see how twitter censures US President tweets. I thought there was freedom of expression in USA ama? It seems in USA the people that control freedom of expression are the big corporates. What is the difference between what Twitter and other social media corporates in USA are doing with what China government is doing when censuring what they do not want to be known by its citizens? @Purple @T.Vercetti @Teddy_time

yes there’s freedom of expression 100% , but that doesn’t mean freedom from the consequences of your actions get that right, no one stopped him from spreading lies and misinformation, he did and got censored for it
The media companies are held liable for content posted on their websites. So they have a right to censor whatever they like. If you dont like it, find your own website.
He hasnt been stopped from tweeting, he is just being censored. Anyone can read the tweet and make up their minds. Wewe enda china or Russia and try to censure something Putin or Xi said…
Not for social media companies though. They are protected by Section 230 that generally provides immunity for website publishers from third-party content. You cannot therefore sue Twitter and Facebook ([SIZE=6]including news outlets with comment sections - operative word being the comment section),[/SIZE] since this statute clearly states and I quote “No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider”.
However, the law does was later amended to give these companies the power to remove content that infringes on copyrights, promotes hate speech, as well as harmful sexual content that might contravene sex and human trafficking laws.
In sum, social media companies can ban hate speech, quarantine online forums, and even completely ban accounts, but, what many people do not know is that this issue is mutually exclusive from the legal fact that these social media platforms cannot be held liable for what their users post.
If say geographic border states as we know them now will cease to exist in the future and Big Corp.s become the new states, and we are getting a glimpse of how they will govern. Will you live in the Kingdom of Amazon or the Syndicate of Alphabet? Or maybe you will prefer the People’s Republic of Huawei?
Why do you think a private company owes Trump a platform?
Leftists mnatetea nini? Censorship in any form is bad.
The disclaimer has to be there. Otherwise, there would be people running amok over unverifiable lies that have no basis at all. The freedom of speech has not been censured.
if his stupid careless tweets spark unrest leading to bloodshed in trumpistan Bidenstan , twitter will be blamed for ‘not doing anything abt the orange maniac’ , ata naona most twitter employees watajinyonga… unlike african genocides , huko kila mtu ako strapped…USA is divided and trump supporters are racist , proud of trump and proud of the confederate flag …the other side is liberal and ready to defend their decency from the like of trump ,and kina antifa dnt care , kukiharibika katanuka…
A public figure has to watch what he says to avoid creating tension…a person like you can spew upuzi and we don’t care
No freedom - even freedom to life - is absolute. That’s why they condemn hard core criminals to death.
Have you taken your time to read the guidelines on elections in the censored tweets…Its totally understandable. That being said fuck Gay democrats.
I get really affected when anyone’s voice is drowned out. I know how it feels. It’s a really frustrating feeling. It’s like that nightmare when you can’t run and can’t call out for help. I was watching this video of a judge telling some guy to shut up and I got physically sick. I just can’t stand it, even for this suspected murderer. And idiots who support it… i just have no words.
we wont accept mail in fraud
