Tech & Terrorism: Twitter Reverses Course, Suspends Hamas and Hezbollah
Twitter has suspended internationally designated terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah from its platform. The decision came in response to criticism and pressure from U.S. Representatives Josh Gottheimer, Tom Reed, Max Rose, and Brian Fitzpatrick, who demanded the tech giant eliminate the terrorist groups’ online privileges. “Unsurprisingly, Twitter’s abrupt course correction did not occur until after a public outcry, and we commend those members of Congress for their efforts to hold the company accountable,” said CEP Executive Director David Ibsen.
