New York, Jul 7 (EFE/EPA).- (Camera: Justin Lane) Former President Donald Trump announced Wednesday that had filed a class action lawsuit against Facebook, Google and Twitter and their CEOs to force them to rescind their bans on his social accounts with them, something he considers to be censorship and an attack on his "freedom of expression."FOOTAGE OF TRUMP'S PRESS CONFERENCE.
Facebook will begin removing all content that mentions the phrase "stop the steal". This comes a full 69 days after Election Day, according to reports at CNN. There have been continued attempts to organize events against the outcome of the US presidential election. Many of them have lead to violence, like the terror attacks on the Capitol recently. "We're taking this additional step in the lead up to the inauguration," says Guy Rosen, Facebook's VP of integrity. "Stop the steal" has become popular among Trump supporters that believe false claims of election fraud.
The recent storming of the US Capitol seems to be hitting President Donald Trump not only politically, but financially as well. CNN reports a growing number of businesses suddenly want very little to do with Trump after he incited a mob of his supporters to attack the Capitol. Twitter and Facebook banned Trump indefinitely, and Stripe is no longer processing credit card payments for his campaign. Shopify stopped operating online stores for the Trump Organization and the campaign and the PGA is pulling a major golf tournament from a Trump resort. It's also unclear which, if any, banks will want to loan money to the Trump Organization.
Twitter said Wednesday it has locked President Donald Trump's account for 12 hours, says CNN. This is a warning sign, for the first time, that the site may suspend him permanently. The temporary lock reflects Trump's violation of the Twitter rules, the company said. "We have required the removal of three @realDonaldTrump Tweets," said Twitter. The tweets posted earlier today were repeated and severe violations of Twitter's Civic Integrity Policy. Twitter says future violations will result in a permanent suspension of Trump's account.
