They cant justify it. I predict a court case up in here. Veritas hasnt lost a single one yet - YouTube is smarter, they realise they cant ban them.
Can't wait to see TWITTER on the wall of shame!
It sounds like he was banned for the private information rule before: https://www.thewrap.com/twitter-permanently-suspends-project-veritas-james-okeefe/
If that is the case, Twitter is shielded by section 230 for better or worse. Courts have given websites the ability to enforce community rules for user generated content unless the content violates the law.
Veritas should move to a different site, imho. Using Twitter only lets Twitter win.
Thus why the people crying 230 is good as if something new couldn't be brought to protect smaller sites are stupid.
230 is shit. Should not protect against shit like this.
It needs clarification and updating. I understand giving sites the ability to remove spam and trolls without being considered a publisher. But PV is a legitimate organization trying to publish information that's relevant to the public. Twitter should be understood to exercise editorial control by banning them.
my bet is that veritas has the goods on twitter. if he can get into discovery with twitter just about every one involved in using social media and news is exposed.
