Twitter's users are essentially volunteer contributors on a privately owned and operated web site, and Twitter has every right to do as it pleases with whatever content it hosts.
This is basically whining about the actions of mods on a free web forum.
Maybe governments shouldn't be using some poorly run private sector web site to communicate with the public.
- whimsicalism 6y agoPerhaps we can have a discussion about the power of various private actors without resorting to calling critiques of that power "whining." FWIW, I think you are confusing what is legally permissible today with the normative statement by GP that Twitter shouldn't be the one making these calls.
