No, it was not correct.

It is much better for the health of our country for everyone to be on the same platform discussing and debating the issues of the day.
Twitter should at the very least base their terms of service on the First Amendment Common Law of the United States. https://t.co/ciZBSD4j89
Bitcoin can be the foundational layer of the next internet, like TCP/IP.

So.... are you actually going to do the right thing and reinstate @realdonaldtrump or just waste space with drivel? https://t.co/aVDQzC76uh

I am re-reading @jack’s thread here and trying to imagine what it’s like to be Jack Dorsey right now. The one guy held primarily responsible for these decisions while faced with the business end of Donald J. Trump’s many armed and angry supporters. https://t.co/rEThxbApNB

The reason I have so much passion for #Bitcoin is largely because of the model it demonstrates: a foundational internet technology that is not controlled or influenced by any single individual or entity. This is what the internet wants to be, and over time, more of it will be.

Not only did you ban the President of the United States, but you deleted historical records (i.e. his tweets.)

And you're been hiding behind your Twitter account, not doing interviews ever since you got WRECKED on Joe Rogan's podcast. https://t.co/Wrs9e0ovvF
Ever reflective, @jack calls his decision to ban Trump a failure to create a service that can sustain healthy conversation. His tone strikes me as the opposite of Sheryl Sandberg’s, who took the same opportunity to say FB did better than othershttps://t.co/VY1ptiYB7O

All of the internet was like this before companies such as Twitter privatized it all. https://t.co/p2tyeuewAY

I do not celebrate or feel pride in our having to ban @realDonaldTrump from Twitter, or how we got here. After a clear warning we’d take this action, we made a decision with the best information we had based on threats to physical safety both on and off Twitter. Was this correct?

Something about Jack, despite being aloof and often posting the most bizarre shit... he is so much more effective at conveying a sense of sincerity and thoughtfulness about online speech than Zuckerberg. https://t.co/8mVRDyX282

Snapchat could have easily been the social network to permanently ban Trump first, and long before January 6, 2021.
— Emil Protalinski (@EPro) January 14, 2021
Instead, Snapchat is just following Twitter and even then only waiting until Trump is no longer president.https://t.co/HYB8wt2FzM

fascinating thread by @jack, lots to unpack.

i get that he has to speak for the company but i suspect this was a broader policy call. greater transparency into how that call was made, the standards applied, etc would be really welcomed. https://t.co/rlMESO2e8u
