Twitter temporarily blocks US Republican Greene for
COVID-19 posts
Twitter Inc on SLOTXO said it temporarily suspended Republican U.S. Representative
Marjorie Taylor Greene's account for tweets which violated the social media's
misinformation policy on COVID-19.
Greene posted that the coronavirus is not dangerous for non-obese people under 65,
and that organizations should not force "non-FDA" approved vaccines or masks.
These tweets have been labeled as "misleading" by the platform.
The United States is using vaccines made by Pfizer Inc, Moderna Inc and Johnson
& Johnson under Food and Drug Administration's emergency use authorization.
None of these vaccines are fully approved but numerous studies have proven their
efficacy.
U.S. President Joe Biden has called on the social media companies to take action
on vaccine misinformation.
"We took enforcement action on the account @mtgreenee for violations of
the Twitter Rules, specifically the COVID-19 misleading information policy," a Twitter
spokesperson said in an emailed statement.
Greene's account will remain locked for 12 hours, according to Twitter.
In a video statement on Facebook Live, Greene acknowledged that she had been
temporarily suspended from the platform and blamed the Biden administration for
trying to control free speech.作者: martina28043 時間: 2021-7-20 20:16
