The “free speech” concerns have always been a load of bullshit. These are businesses making billions off of death threats, unfettered racism and streamed real world violence.

What a fucking terrible statement to the world. https://t.co/kbAWeDjC2C
Just landed in Paris, with a busy few days ahead. First, the Christchurch Call to Action meeting, where world leaders & social media companies will meet to take action against violence & hate online. Then, I’ll speak at @VivaTech about restoring trust in the digital world.

It's laughable that a WH that often characterizes the free press as the "enemy of the people" is suddenly concerned with free speech.

Let's call this what it is: @realDonaldTrump once again actively choosing to NOT show leadership in combatting extremism. https://t.co/PdfPX8pU36
Restrictions on live streaming for people that violate policies not a bad idea, but still easy for a terrorist to have a backup account that they drop the link into 4Chan just before they go live. https://t.co/cpUntd85rk

If as user violates certain policies like sharing a statement of a terror group without appropriate context, the post gets deleted and the account restricted from going live.https://t.co/qt5Bkx94ys
In choosing not to stand against extremist speech, WH says with a straight face: “We maintain that the best tool to defeat terrorist speech is productive speech”

So Twitter will try to remove livestreams of lone shooters or homicidal gunmen as fast as possible...What about graphic livestreams and videos of government soldiers firing on citizen protestors (e.g. Sudan)? https://t.co/YNG8bG3Vaw
Translation: We can’t do this because the actual President would be in permanent breach of any international pact to stop extremism on social media. Obvs. https://t.co/UNopD2fgYf

It is an outrage that the WH will not sign this agreement. Hate speech has no place in our society. It is not a partisan issue: White House says it won't sign international agreement to combat online extremism https://t.co/ww5e7uV5Hi

Here’s a fun thought - when you run your government policy to please religious and identity extemists because you their support to stay in power, that resembles what places like Saudi Arabia do.
