Hello folks,
I recently heard a Kim Komando minute which I thought I’d post about.
In a nutshell, it states that social media can’t censor people’s thoughts anymore. This is according to a Texas ruling about their law that states this.
For a limited time, Download this 1.43mb daily minute file to hear all about it. It’ll be up for two weeks.
Suffice it to say, it says that no matter what happened with our former president Trump’s account, they can no longer do this. I feel that Donald Trump may have violated their terms of service, but I can not prove this, and I do not work for Twitter.
Whether this is upheld or not, there are some things that must stick. If the terms of service are violated, take the necessary action on the account deemed necessary based on the violation.
For example, if Donald Trump did violate terms of service by telling people to cause problems at the White House, than he should have gotten suspended at least.
I remember the time i reported an account because of what I saw on their timeline. Looking up the terms of service, I searched for terms like threats and found things that I felt were applicable to what I saw. So, I went ahead and marked tweets for review and left it in Twitter’s capable hands.
This is definitely something we need to be aware of, because Social Media not necessarily like what we post or publish. I wonder if this is going to stick or whether it’ll be sent to the supreme court? I’m not sure, but you guys can listen to this file and make your own decisions.
When this gets retweeted, you’ll have onemore week to get this file. After that, go search it out. I hope that social media is forced to follow their terms and ban who needs to be banned, suspend who needs to be suspended and run it right.
