Expression on social media and account banning

Upload 31 May 2019, Last update 28 June 2020

Social media has large influence on formation of opinion — in detailed way of describing, it isn’t enough to reach the point of opinion but rather I would say impressions towards things spoken on platforms, people are driven more or less (at times largely) by the waves of posts. Social media doesn’t have border basically.

A tweet of US president Donald Trump posted at 1:53pm of 29 May 2020[1] got warned as “This Tweet violated the Twietter Rules about glorifying violence.”, but “accessible” as the platform considers “it may be in the public’s interest”.

In August of 2018, “Apple, Facebook, YouTube, and Spotify” removed publications of Alex Jones[2].
