I have a hard time imagining anything positive coming, based on that.

    They did it to themselves.

    They kept claiming they were a forum under forum rules then changed to editorial control of content.

    PUBLISHER

    oops!

    They were warned.

    I’m sure Twitter will do fine as an electronic newspaper.

    Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has called out Twitter for attaching a fact check to a tweet from President Trump, telling Fox News' Dana Perino that privately-owned digital platforms should not act as the "arbiter of truth."

    I don't see this ending well but it probably will. The hypocrisy by Twitter is staggering against the over reach by Trump which is easily over turned

    Appealing to the base, nothing more, as most EOs generally do when looking at the language. It’ll get gummed up in court as most do.

    So the President rails against fake news since we've known him, but when he's called out on his own fake news he whines like a baby. Pretty much a nothingburger when it come to this clown.

    Problem Twitter and all these idiots have is that if they “fact-check” anything, then they implicitly endorse anything posted on their platform that they don’t “fact-check”. And the fact Twitter has been the ChiCom’s publicity path of choice for the last little while doesn’t help their cause.

    They are either a completely free-speech forum or a publisher with the responsibilities/liabilities that come with it...you can’t be a little of one and a little of the other.

    And they still need to break up a bunch of big tech including Facebook and Google.

    Shouldn't those arguing for small government not be for government regulation over private social media platforms?

    Exactly. Also why Trump is a democrat.

    You guys keep saying that. What the fuck does that mean? Honestly, what's the distinction?

    Editorial control vs passive posting

    Twitter was warned of the risks of exerting editorial control over the postings of its users. It now has additional liability from the content posted they were formerly exempt from.

    Having the chicoms control our pharmaceuticals is stupid. Having Facebook and Google control our social media is stupid and illegal under our antitrust laws. If they were equal on their application of denying access I wouldn't be so concerned. But they aren't. They supported the fake news about the Russian collusion and the fake news about the chicom crud as they kowtow to the chicoms. Break them up.
