Amid President Donald Trump's frantic tweets demanding a stop to voting, Twitter itself is being sued for not suspending Trump's account. Business Insider reports the suit comes from two national, nonpartisan organizations. They're calling for CEO Jack Dorsey to temporarily suspend Trump's Twitter account over multiple violations of the company's civic integrity policy. The president has made various tweets in the last few days including baseless claims of election fraud and prematurely declaring victory. Twitter announced well ahead of Election Day that it would add labels to tweets that included misleading content. But the joint letter states that doing so 'does not go far enough' as the results of the 2020 presidential election remain unofficial.
Jack Dorsey will continue to serve as Twitter's CEO.
Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey wants to "decentralise" the platform, by moving away from a single point of control to instead have many points of control.
Jack Dorsey will run Twitter and mobile payments company Square simultaneously. Some wonder whether he can keep both jobs. Fred Katayama reports.
Apoplectic Republican Senate Judiciary Committee members plan to subpoena Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey. They want him to testify about Twitter's decision to block links to a dubious New York Post article about Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden. The New York Post article contains unverified emails purportedly taken from Hunter Biden's laptop. Twitter says it considered the emails to have been hacked. According to Business Insider, those same emails were provided to the newspaper by Rudy Giuliani, President Donald Trump's personal lawyer. Hunter Biden has denied the story's veracity. Twitter said it blocked people from sharing links to the Post's story Wednesday for violating its policies against distributing 'hacked materials.'
