If you’re a journalist and you’re giving libel lawyers a platform to claim social media is publishing, you need to have a serious think.
@adambanksdotcom @DarienGS Got to say I'm with Darien on that one. When multinationals are using it, you can't afford it pub-chat status.

@bazzacollins@DarienGS It’s pub chat AND it’s marcomms. Can make and enforce rules for latter but former must retain its protections. -
@adambanksdotcom@bazzacollins FFS IT HAS NONE -
@DarienGS@bazzacollins You can’t just keep moving Article 10 on - “Yes yes, of course you can do that, just not here.” If not here, where? -
@adambanksdotcom@bazzacollins Anywhere that isn't public. In a closed Facebook group, for example. On email. In an actual pub. -
@DarienGS@bazzacollins No, bollocks to that. Free speech doesn’t belong underground. -
@adambanksdotcom@DarienGS Not sure that Article 10 affords Twitter any more protection than any other form of communication. -
@bazzacollins@DarienGS I’m arguing it affords it no less. Just that. -
@adambanksdotcom@DarienGS But as Darien says, that still exposes it to libel/defamation cases. Not sure what distinction you're drawing? - 6 more replies
