特朗普被“封杀”后,这些国家猛然惊醒

执掌白宫的日子已经屈指可数,美国总统特朗普却困兽犹斗,始终拒绝认输。近日发生的特朗普支持者“冲击国会山”事件,更让政权交接成为一场闹剧。

这场闹剧令自诩“民主灯塔”的美国颜面尽失,而特朗普也为此付出了代价——他的推特账号因涉嫌煽动暴力而被“封杀”。

报道称,推特的决定令特朗普失去了他多年来用以和美国人民直接交流的强大工具。他利用推特宣布政策变化,挑战对手,侮辱敌人,称赞其盟友和他本人,并散布错误信息,煽动暴力,用大写字母谴责他的愤怒目标。

的确,过去四年间,当特朗普权势正盛时,他的个人推特是各国媒体和政府机构等关注的重点,以至于产生了“推特治国”的说法。那时恐怕没多少人能预料到,这位“推特总司令”会落得如此下场。

“推特没有言论自由。”特朗普在个人账号被封之后用美国总统官方账号说道,然而这些推文也迅速被删除。

不仅推特一家,美国各大科技巨头还对特朗普实施了“联合绞杀”,脸书、谷歌、苹果、优兔等都在极力降低特朗普的“存在感”。

科技巨头们给出的理由看起来相当正义,例如推特解释称,领导人账户“并非完全凌驾于我们的规定之上”,不得利用推特煽动暴力。但路透社注意到,脸书和推特等公司以前可不敢这样对待特朗普,反而对他很是“宽待”,即便特朗普所发帖文违反规定,也以其“关乎公共利益”为由加以保留。

曾在奥巴马执政时期担任白宫通讯联络办公室主任的珍妮弗·帕尔米利也指出,社交媒体公司们决定对特朗普采取更多措施的那天,正好跟它们得知国会所有能监管它们的委员会都将被民主党掌控是同一天。

这很难不令人多想,尤其是在特朗普目前还是美国合法总统的情况下,甚至有些外国领导人都看不下去了。

据美联社报道,墨西哥总统洛佩斯·奥夫拉多尔批评了他所谓的对美国总统的审查制度,他说:“我不喜欢任何人被剥夺在推特或脸书网站上发布信息的权利。我不同意这种做法,我不接受。”

按照美媒的说法,奥夫拉多尔发出此番言论是因为他“对特朗普友好”,但这显然不是事情的全貌——在墨西哥以外的很多国家,人们看到美国科技巨头对总统的“封杀”时,也感到不寒而栗。

1月9日,当印度亚洲国际新闻社(ANI)在其官方推特上追踪报道了特朗普的推特账号被封的消息后,有印度学者便转发呼吁:“我们必须建立我们自己的社交媒体平台。”

“私人公司手中的权力太大了。”这位学者说。

还有印度网友指出,通过运作,脸书和推特可能比当地政府的文件更能引导民意,这是值得担忧的,因为这已经大大超出了美国政治的范畴。

“对于印度、以色列以及其他各国来说,保有一个主权范围内的让领导层和人民直接沟通的渠道都是一个重要的国家安全问题,”有网友说,“这个世界不能被美国公司掌控”。

印度网友推特

无独有偶,法国数字事务部部长塞德里克·奥也表达了类似的担忧。他在接受媒体采访时质问:“推特怎么可以单方面决定封锁一个有8000万粉丝的账号?”并呼吁对数字寡头进行更进一步的监管,结束它们为所欲为的状态。

“试想一下,如果哪天脸书或推特变得政治化,在法国支持或反对某些政党的时候,它们就可以修改规则来禁止不同的观点。”他说。

美国《纽约时报》2015年的一篇报道曾指出,截至2013年,全球十大互联网公司中8家在美国,而它们的网上用户中,81%都在美国之外。

从近些年的发展来看,推特等美国社交媒体平台在一些问题上其实早已“政治化”。据美国商业内幕网站1月9日报道,中国驻美大使馆官方推特日前引述中国学者报告称,有研究显示,新疆妇女变得更有自信和独立自主。但此条推文随后被推特删除。

而在2019年香港“修例风波”时,推特就曾以“违反推特价值观”等理由关停了大批阐明真相的账号,反而对造谣传谣的大批账号纵容有加,推特公司副总裁还会见了多名乱港分子,为乱局推波助澜。

这次“封杀特朗普”,则给全世界的人们提了个醒:“数字帝国主义”仍未走远。

Permanent suspension of @realDonaldTrump

By Twitter Inc.
Friday, 8 January 2021

After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them — specifically how they are being received and interpreted on and off Twitter — we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence. 

In the context of horrific events this week, we made it clear on Wednesday that additional violations of the Twitter Rules would potentially result in this very course of action. Our public interest framework exists to enable the public to hear from elected officials and world leaders directly. It is built on a principle that the people have a right to hold power to account in the open. 

However, we made it clear going back years that these accounts are not above our rules entirely and cannot use Twitter to incite violence, among other things. We will continue to be transparent around our policies and their enforcement. 

The below is a comprehensive analysis of our policy enforcement approach in this case.

Overview

On January 8, 2021, President Donald J. Trump Tweeted:

“The 75,000,000 great American Patriots who voted for me, AMERICA FIRST, and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, will have a GIANT VOICE long into the future. They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!”

Shortly thereafter, the President Tweeted:

“To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th.”

Due to the ongoing tensions in the United States, and an uptick in the global conversation in regards to the people who violently stormed the Capitol on January 6, 2021, these two Tweets must be read in the context of broader events in the country and the ways in which the President’s statements can be mobilized by different audiences, including to incite violence, as well as in the context of the pattern of behavior from this account in recent weeks. After assessing the language in these Tweets against our Glorification of Violencepolicy, we have determined that these Tweets are in violation of the Glorification of Violence Policy and the user @realDonaldTrump should be immediately permanently suspended from the service.

Assessment

We assessed the two Tweets referenced above under our Glorification of Violence policy, which aims to prevent the glorification of violence that could inspire others to replicate violent acts and determined that they were highly likely to encourage and inspire people to replicate the criminal acts that took place at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

This determination is based on a number of factors, including:

  • President Trump’s statement that he will not be attending the Inauguration is being received by a number of his supporters as further confirmation that the election was not legitimate and is seen as him disavowing his previous claim made via two Tweets (1, 2) by his Deputy Chief of Staff, Dan Scavino, that there would be an “orderly transition” on January 20th.
  • The second Tweet may also serve as encouragement to those potentially considering violent acts that the Inauguration would be a “safe” target, as he will not be attending. 
  • The use of the words “American Patriots” to describe some of his supporters is also being interpreted as support for those committing violent acts at the US Capitol.
  • The mention of his supporters having a “GIANT VOICE long into the future” and that “They will not be disrespected or treated unfairly in any way, shape or form!!!” is being interpreted as further indication that President Trump does not plan to facilitate an “orderly transition” and instead that he plans to continue to support, empower, and shield those who believe he won the election. 
  • Plans for future armed protests have already begun proliferating on and off-Twitter, including a proposed secondary attack on the US Capitol and state capitol buildings on January 17, 2021. 

As such, our determination is that the two Tweets above are likely to inspire others to replicate the violent acts that took place on January 6, 2021, and that there are multiple indicators that they are being received and understood as encouragement to do so.

禁川普不禁恶名昭彰,推特股价崩跌10%

 

社群平台推特(Twitter)股价11日暴跌10%,《市场内幕》(MarketInsider)报导指出,原因是永久禁止美国总统川普(Donald Trump)使用其帐号。

报导指出,推特上有8千8百万位用户追踪川普。推特上周五(8日)晚上宣布永久禁止川普账号后,该公司的股票今早盘前交易中下跌多达10%。

投资者担心禁止川普使用其帐号,将侵蚀推特这个平台的营利,并引起认为这项决定出自政治计算,刻意扼杀保守派声音者的杯葛。

推特禁止川普使用其帐户,也让人检视该平台是否用同样的标准去对待恶名昭彰的独裁者。《福斯新闻》(FoxNews)报导,伊朗最高领袖哈米尼(Ayatollah Ali Khamenei)、涉嫌反犹的美国穆斯林团体领袖拉法勘(LouisFarrakhan )和中国的大外宣份子都还在推特活跃,委内瑞拉独裁者马杜洛(Nicolas Maduro)的推特也好端端的。

《金融时报》(Financial Times)也刊登文章质疑〈推特vs.川普:科技巨擘是否做过头了?〉。

 

 

 

  • Twitter's stock price tumbled as much as 12% on Monday, erasing $5 billion from its market capitalization.
  • The tumble followed the social-media group's permanent suspension of President Donald Trump's account on Friday.
  • "After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence," Twitter said.
  • Trump, who had about 88 million followers, generated enormous publicity for the platform with his controversial and incendiary tweets over the past six years.

Twitter stock fell as much as 12% on Monday after the social-media company permanently suspended President Donald Trump's account on Friday evening. The share-price decline wiped $5 billion from Twitter's market capitalization.

Twitter's bosses suspended Trump's account - which had about 88 million followers - after the world leader's fanning of conspiracy theories about voter fraud and election theft spurred thousands of his supporters to lay siege to the Capitol last week.

"After close review of recent Tweets from the @realDonaldTrump account and the context around them we have permanently suspended the account due to the risk of further incitement of violence," Twitter said.

The ban followed Facebook's suspension of Trump for at least the rest of his presidency. CEO Mark Zuckerberg defended the decision in a Facebook post on Thursday, arguing that Trump appeared intent on using his account to undermine a peaceful transition of power and risked sparking more violence.

Twitter stock likely fell because investors are worried the Trump ban will erode interest in the platform and lead to boycotts among those who see the decision as politically motivated and a way to silence a major conservative voice.

 

 

 

Twitter's stock falls after Trump's account is suspended

New York (CNN Business)Shares of Twitter fell Monday after the company announced late Friday that it had permanently banned President Donald Trump from the platform.

Twitter (TWTR) joins a growing list of companies distancing themselves from Trump following the deadly attack at the Capitol last week by a mob of the president's supporters, many of whom believe Trump's false assertion that the election was stolen from him.
From a financial perspective, investors may believe banning Trump could hurt Twitter because some former followers of his feed may decide to leave the platform due to their belief that the company is silencing conservative voices. There's also the fact that even before Trump's ban, advertisers may have decided they want to avoid sponsoring content on a platform that has become polarizing.
Twitter shares fell as much as nearly 10% early Monday before paring some losses and trading down 6% by midday.
Trump faces shameful prospect of second impeachment with Democrats set to move quickly this week
 
Plus, Twitter and other social media companies may also come under more pressure from the Biden administration and Democrats who will soon control the House and Senate. They may seek to crack down further on the more incendiary content on the platform, not to mention the outright lies tweeted by politicians and other verified account holders.
Even after Monday's big drop, though, shares of Twitter are still up about 45% over the past 12 months. That's a bigger return than Facebook's (FB)20% gain during the same time period -- although it lags the more than 200% surge for Snapchat owner Snap (SNAP).
Twitter reported a healthy jump in earnings for the third quarter but investors are worried about a slowdown in user growth. And the platform remains the preferred method for many users to share breaking news and commentary.
"I think we have an opportunity to show people a much broader aspect of Twitter than just what they see with news and politics," said Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey during a conference call with analysts in October.
"People are coming for one reason and staying because they find relevant topics that are interesting to them," Dorsey added.
Enraged Trump may lash out at big tech after Twitter ban but plans not final
 
Many Twitter users have attracted massive followings, and their tweets are not just newsworthy. They can also move markets.
Case in point: Tesla (TSLA) CEO Elon Musk, who has nearly 42 million followers, helped to inadvertently spark a significant rally in a tiny stock last week when he simply tweeted "Use Signal," an endorsement of the encrypted messaging service.
Shares of a health tech company named Signal Advance (SIGL), which is not the owner of the Signal app, soared more than 525% Thursday following Musk's tweet. It nearly doubled again Friday and was up another 400% Monday after a strategist at Deutsche Bank noted the increase in a report.

总统被“禁言” 美式“言论自由”着实让人大开眼界

“人还在,号没了”,这对因“煽动暴力”而遭美国多个社交媒体封号禁言的美国领导人来说,无疑是件难堪的事。而更难堪的是,在一向标榜“言论自由”的美国,一国总统失去了在社交平台自由发言的权利,不啻是对美式“言论自由”的莫大讽刺。

有人说,美国领导人在社交媒体上发表煽动暴力的言论,违反美国法律与平台管理规则,相关平台将其封号是依法办事。这话没错,任何在社交媒体上煽动暴力的行为都应被禁止。但问题是:过去四年,美国领导人在社交平台上说的出格话太多了,既有散播假新闻的,也有煽动仇恨暴力的,为什么美国社交媒体一直迟迟未采取行动?

截至2020年5月,美国领导人上任以来在社交媒体上共发表了1.8万多个“虚假或误导性信息”,其中超过3300个是在推特上发布的。去年5月非裔男子弗洛伊德被白人警察跪杀后,美国多地爆发游行示威和骚乱。当时美国领导人在推特上发文扬言“只要(有人)抢劫就开枪”。虽然推特将该文打上“美化暴力”的标记,但并未将其删除。美国领导人依旧可以在社交媒体上发文煽动暴力。

特别是在去年大选结果出来后,他多次在推特上呼吁支持者以“行动”抗争,呼吁他们到华盛顿去游行,“那里将会疯狂”。对此,美国社交媒体无动于衷,任由其声嘶力竭地煽动。直到国会山遭暴力冲击事件发生后,这些社交媒体好像才“幡然醒悟”采取措施。

梳理这一系列事件发生的时机,难道不值得玩味吗?表面上看,此时封禁美国领导人账号,是社交媒体制止传播暴力的合理正当行为,但实际上这里面夹杂了不少政治私心。

人们看到,眼下离美国领导人卸任不到十天,但以国会山冲击事件为导火索,对他及其支持者的政治清算已经展开。从美国警方火速逮捕至少82名冲击国会大厦的抗议者,到美国众议院议长佩洛西要求军方确保总统不能动用核武器,再到美国国会11日发起对总统的二次弹劾,美国领导人正面临“墙倒众人推”的处境。

 

在这样的政治氛围下,美国各大社交媒体对其禁言消声,既是为了表明政治正确,也有将自身与此次暴力事件割席、逃脱责任的考虑。由此可见,封还是不封,说到底都是一场政治投机而已。正如西班牙《世界报》评论所说,美国社交网络本该是促进自由交流的工具,却最终成为传播虚假信息和实施政治操纵的工具。

这也让人们进一步看清,所谓美式“言论自由”只看立场,不过是美国得势者对内打压异己、对外攻击对手的政治工具罢了。

雪崩时没有一片雪花是无辜的。当示威者在暴力言论鼓噪下冲进美国国会山,当虚假信息在美国社交媒体大肆传播,所谓的美式“言论自由”,也撕下了最后一片遮羞布。

川普反抗“数位大屠杀”:所有推文在Gab霸气回归

美国总统川普及社群媒体Parler遭主流企业封杀不仅引发国际反弹,更激起一波"数位移民潮",不少川普支持者"逃亡"至Gab等其他社交平台。

Gab创辨人暨执行长托尔巴(Andrew Torba)为反制他所称的"数位大屠杀",不但备份了川普在推特的所有推文,并已将这些推文完整恢复到川普在Gab上的帐号。

美国保守派网站《权威者门户》(Gateway Pundit)在报导中惊呼:"哇! Gab执行长反制科技暴君,把川普总统在推特上的所有推文,恢复到川普在Gab上的帐号了。"

报导中说,更令人印象深刻的是,他是在流量上升700%并受到左派攻击的情况下做到的。Gab目前正在对伺服器进行升级,以处理大量涌入的流量,但我们被告知应该很快就会稳定下来。

托尔巴日前公布,在推特封锁川普之后,Gab每小时平均新增1万个帐号,整体流量增长约40%,更单日有逾50万个新帐号登记。

托尔巴称,川普支持者正"被共产主义者在网路步步进逼",形容保守派、基督徒和"对共产主义利益集团统治有异议的人"正遭受"数位大屠杀"他预言日后会出现"大饥荒灭绝"(Holodomor)。面对网站流量不断增长,他重申正准备更多伺服器来因应。
