He will bury them in mighty tweets. The very, very best tweets written by a very stable genius and his very best people. Only the very best.
My God. How much sillier can this nation become? The very notion that tweeting is now a form of governmental information is so ludicrous as to be laughable if it wasn't true.
The United States of America has lost all its dignity and pride as a nation. We have allowed ourselves to become a society of bitter clowns.
If I'm running a private site I can't ban or censor trolls?
Is your private site for providers and users of an "interactive computer service" who publish information provided by others?
You better make damn sure there is nothing anyone posts ever that you could be sued for, even if it up for a second and someone screen captures it. You would need review before it went public.
Trump warns Social Media Giants to cut out with the censoring, or else!
IOW, spoiled little brat upset the world doesn't dedicate itself to pleasing him.
It isn't just him.
It is the 1st amendment and internet discrimination. Something realized 12 years ago, that could be used as a weapon, for a magnitude of reasons. Rules were placed as the internet market place expanded rapidly, where discrimination could put individuals out of business. They saw the future and the evils that breed with power.
In other words the people must have the right to be exposed to fake news, so they can fall for it hook, line and sinker, if they wish. After all, so many people live to be lied to, especially if it agrees with their political agenda.
They have the liberty to not have others think for them, and what is good enough for them to see, stricter than the FCC censorship restrictions. The CDA is pretty clear. You go beyond and censor non-offensive speech, you lose your immunity and can be sued for any and all content on your site.
USA would have split into different countries long before his dream wiould be realized.
He can appoint himself the Dear Leader for life of the Confederate States of America with its capital somewhere in Texas though. I am sure they would be thrilled with having him leader for eternity.
It is getting irrational and really silly now!
It must be slowly hitting home for the Communist, that the Bill of Rights does apply to the internet in the USA.
The defendant must be a "provider or user" of an "interactive computer service."
The cause of action asserted by the plaintiff must treat the defendant as the "publisher or speaker" of the harmful information at issue.
The information must be "provided by another information content provider," i.e., the defendant must not be the "information content provider" of the harmful information at issue.
If they have immunity as they do now, because they are to be nondiscriminatory,(which it is documented they are not) Google, Twitter, Youtube, Facebook and the user posting the libel, and lies cannot be sued because of immunity.
Once they start censoring beyond the FCC requirements, they can be sued for content. The user that posted it and the provider that hosted it.
First , FCC Censorship requirements are for broadcast TV and radio, and do not apply to the internet.
Second, FCC Censorship requirements are for obscenity and not political content (Otherwise Fox / MSNBC would've been shut down ages ago)
Third, that argument is totally different from Ted Cruz's argument, which is based on the CDA.
Yes they do, It is in the CDA.
Exactly Political content is not considered offensive. If Twitter wanted to censor curse words they can. That is in the CDA FCC. Providers can give more liberty to users than the FCC requires, but the government is there to secure our liberty, not to allow it to be taken and for once this actually does just that.
The internet is the same as radio and TV in the USA, with a lot more flexibility in what is allowed, but little flexibility beyond reasonable predetermined criteria by the FCC, on what is taken. TV and Radio are not virtual worlds to travel.
tory,(which it is documented they are not) Google, Twitter, Youtube, Facebook and the user posting the libel, and lies cannot be sued because of immunity.
Im going to have to run out and let everyone who has ever been sued for libel on those platforms know that GASP they're immune!
You keep trying to convolute this into something it isn't. People point out over and over why you're wrong, and you ignore it and just add fresh nonsense like this claim about people posting things on these platforms being immune to libel laws.
Because we love to beech slap the bullies, to straighten them out.
In other words you love to troll.
