according to you. But you are not Twitter.
Twitter isnt allowed to have a terms of service?
Decision of the court was not appealed so it remains in effect.
WASHINGTON â Tuesday, a federal appeals court ruled that President Donald Trump canât block people on Twitter, citing âunconstitutional viewpoint discrimination.â
The judges in the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals ruled unanimously in the case, Knight First Amendment Institute v. Trump, upholding a district court judgeâs ruling.
I donât have time to find the ruling that itâs a public platform due to the way it has transformed use.

I am right.
Prove she did. Prove it. It should not be hard to Google if it was so offensive.
They have the right to make their own rules within the bounds of laws that have been passed.
Example . . . . Child porn
Should we allow post of that? Or is it agianst the law for people to post child porn and the owners of the board subject to prosecution for allowing it?
They are within the bounds of laws that have been passed.
That ruling does not apply to Twitter being able to regulate users. It applies to public officials using social media in a public capacity regulating users
Do NOT bait people into finding things that are against our Terms of serive and post them.

And that is what they are doing
Thanks for the link. A quick browse of it seems to point that it has to with his official position.
Proof that she violated Twitters terms of service exists in the fact that Twitter banned her.

Okay, thats it. People in this thread ARE PURPOSELY obfuscating the facts. I really hate that, really. Dodging, deflecting, comparing apples to oranges. What is wrong with you people.
I am right and Snow is right. I am right that Twitter is now so huge that it is a communications platform for millions, and Snow is right that they must abide by FCC rules.
Comparing that to this small forum or to a local bar is purposely changing the subject.
And Loomer never said anything wrong. If she did it would be quoted allover the Internet. But its not.
And finally, the suppression of conservative speech in media and on college campuses and elsewhere is a documented ongoing crime against free speech that the Left is all to eager to embrace.
Thatâs that!!!
That ruling hinges on teh fact that Trump is the POTUS.
No you arenât
It sure does
They also ruled the same way on AOC in New York.
If they are using their account in an official copacity, they canât block people.
And when they allow politicians to use the platform in their official copacity, it becomes a public platform and they have to follow certain rules and regulations.
Can you cite a ruling that indicates Twitter must follow FCC rules?
Also, does that mean in the next election, Twitter will have to allow the D candidate to say whatever they want about trump?
Also, does that mean Twitter will have to limit the number of tweets to the equivalent number their opponent makes to ensure equal time?
Did they run on either they have to follow twitters TOS?
These rulings donât have anything to do with that question, or your claim that Twitter must follow FEC rules.
Yes they can. Its the politicans that canât block people not the platform. The following is from your link
âParker explained that the court did not take a stance on banning users from a private account or whether the First Amendment governed speech on social media platformsâ.
âWe do conclude, however, that the First Amendment does not permit a public official who utilizes a social media account for all manner of official purposes to exclude persons from an otherwiseâopen online dialogue because they expressed views with which the official disagrees,â Parker wrote.
No, itâs a valid analogy even if you donât like what it teaches.
