    Twitter is also hurtling into oblivion on many fronts, but it does seem a bit more resistant to outrage mobs and other imperious external pressures than Facebook, YouTube, etc. To the extent that remains the case, it should be applauded

        It doesn’t matter either way. Anyone trying to defend any of these companies is silly. The only thing that should be defended in terms of the internet is the standards and the infrastructure. That should be protected under free speech etc.

        No for profit service that algorithmically modifies the experience or content has already ensured that free speech doesn’t really have a shot. If you really did want these services to serve as a public commons they should not be allowed to treat any content preferably.

        This is all very fluid right now. Getting rid of a giant news channel on 3 tech platforms in one day reeks of being very ill-considered action. Twitter has been thoughtful, but may not remain that way for much longer. 8/6 would've been unthinkable not long ago

        They're acting like a cartel, coordinating like that and bringing down Infowars and Alex Jones accounts over multiple media platforms pretty much simultaneously.

        Twitter's suspension of @DanielLMcAdams and @scotthortonshow is fricking outrageous. If Jack Dorsey and the rest of his nitwits are listening, put on some big boy pants, grow a pair and tell Washington to kiss off. Banning such brilliant anti-war voices is OUTRAGEOUS!

        Not complaining don't get me wrong just had to prove to myself weither or not twitter targeted different by political affiliation opposed to taking word of others. To me it seems they do but, everyone else is free to make their own opinions.Twitter should just be honest about it

        Twitter have banned loads of popular accounts. I fully expect them to pull Alex Jones eventually. They are the same ilk as the rest of the Silicon Valley fascists.

        How DO you monetize on Twitter, anyway? The ostensible reason to censor folks on Youtube and also Facebook, is because they're bowing to advertisers' pressure. As far as I know, Twitter isn't monetized like that.

        Except the only functional difference it makes is that LGBT people still get banned for saying things like "transphobia is stupid" but on Twitter there's more people with swastika avatars than facebook.

        Twitter is Orwellian...along with all big tech companies. They are trying to take Trump down by silencing supporters and suppressing corruption news from democrats. But we have learned to spread word like fire.They can’t keep up. @RealCandaceO just gained thousands of followers.
