Russia will block Twitter in one month unless it deletes banned content

- ttt0 6y agoYeah, censorship of child porn.

- ttt0 6y agoSure, just like taking down free speech or right-leaning sites 'included' 'calling for violence'. Twitter didn't removed CP even when the victim asked for it: https://nypost.com/2021/01/21/twitter-sued-for-allegedly-refusing-to-remove-child-porn/ https://nypost.com/2021/01/21/twitter-sued-for-allegedly-ref...
- jsilence 6y agoNot taking down this content is indefensible! Still not totally buying that Russias primary intent is to remove child porn and similar atrocious content.
