HOW THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN

@Twitter has "banned Trump and his allies over spreading false claims about the election, both intended to be disincentives for lodging baseless allegations. But the theories remain popular among many Trump supporters."
$TWTR
washingtonpost.com/politics/inter…
Allowing election lies to propagate on its service is bad for business. Election lies spurred Jan 6 violence. Danger continues.

$TWTR misses announced on today's Q4 earnings call.

@washingtonpost story above needs an editor's note.

Inaccurate: "major social media companies have banned Trump and his allies over spreading false claims about the election."

@Twitter has not banned Trump's chief spokesperson, Liz Harrington.

Hi @nedsegal, Twitter CFO. Look forward to you & Twitter CEO @paraga talking @Twitter Q4 2021 earnings tomorrow!

I hope you will address my question about $TWTR decision to ignore lies about 2020 elections -- which continue unimpeded on the service. @CNN:

Question for @TwitterIR Q4 2021 earnings call tomorrow:

Will Twitter to enforce its policy—as @Jack Dorsey promised Twitter investors the company would—to remove or label lies about the 2020 election and mitigate the risk of further violence?

Twitter banned Trump "due to the risk of further incitement of violence."

Trump's spokesperson Liz Harrington "has been permitted since mid-2021 to freely tweet out Trump statements in which he lies that the 2020 election was 'rigged' and 'stolen'" $TWTR

Hi @TwitterIR. I'm a shareholder. Looking forward to report of Q4 & FY '21 earnings on Feb 10, 2022. Please address @Twitter's decision to quit taking action against 2020 election lies. Risk of political violence puts $TWTR value and overall economy at risk.
Twitter spox told @CNN that Twitter has not been enforcing its 'civic integrity policy' in relation to lies about the 2020 election. That was the policy under which the company had suspended or even banned users for lying about the 2020 election. $TWTR cnn.com/2022/01/28/pol…

Twitter is no longer taking any action against lies about the 2020 election. The Big Lie, advanced by Trump and propagated on social media, sparked the Jan 6 deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

NEW by me: Twitter has quit taking action against lies about the 2020 election: CNN report. An open letter to Twitter CEO and board chair from a $TWTR shareholder.

Source @ddale8 @CNN:

"Twitter quit taking action to try to limit the spread of lies about the 2020 election... a day after another social media platform, YouTube, removed a Republican congressman's campaign ad because it included a 2020 lie."

$TWTR
cnn.com/2022/01/28/pol…
Twitter's largest institutional shareholders should be alarmed by Twitter's decision not to enforce policy against tweeting election lies. Repercussions from election lies hurt investments and the economy. $TWTR

The 17-year-old girl who recorded this video of James Iannazzo told me today that @tiktok_us banned her account after she posted this video there yesterday. She said she "just wanted to make people aware." I have messaged #TikTok to ask why it banned her account.
A spokesperson for Merrill Lynch emailed me today that the man in the video, James Iannazzo has been terminated:

"Our company does not tolerate behavior of this kind. We immediately investigated and have taken action. This individual is no longer employed at our firm."
James Iannazzo was charged with intimidation based on bigotry or bias, breach of peace, and criminal trespass.

His court date is scheduled for February 7 at Bridgeport Superior Court. wfsb.com/news/fairfield…
