Трамп нарушал Terms of Service неоднократно, но Твиттер каждый раз придумывает оправдания, чтобы его не банить, в основном упирая на “newsworthiness”.
It is clear that Trump breaks a number of terms as defined in the small print: abusive tweets (including other users’ handles); threatening tweets; retweeting antisemitic memes. But it’s a pie-in-the-sky idea that Trump would ever be banned, right? The explanation Twitter gives for not banning him is that his tweets fall under “newsworthiness”, a defence that wasn’t afforded actor Rose McGowan, who was suspended for doxing – the practice of broadcasting private information – while leading a worldwide conversation on sexual abuse. The Weinstein story, of course, is the biggest of the past month – wouldn’t removing the tweet have been sufficient? Twitter wants it both ways: to be viewed as a tech company and not a media company, but maintaining that “newsworthiness” is a core part of its service. If that is the case, then it should be taking proper editorial decisions and adopting the responsibilities of a publisher. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/oct/28/trump-breaks-twitters-rules-so-why-not-ban-him
