Twitter and Facebook against Donald Trump

The Silicon Valley seems to be united against US President Donald Trump. Twitter and Facebook are going against Donald Trump. 

Facebook and Twitter on Friday pulled down a misleading video posted by President Donald Trump's accounts because of a copyright complaint. Social Media giants are regulating political speech in their platforms. Both Twitter and Facebook follow different strategies for common purpose.

Twitter adds warning label to Trump’s tweet that included the same video, saying the post featured "manipulated media”. Twitter claims that US President Trump tweeted a doctored video with fake headline. Facebook said that they received a copyright complaint from the rights holder of this video. On other side, Facebook takes down Trump Campaign Ads saying that Ads by Trump campaign showed Nazi Symbols. Twitter starts fact-checks on Trump reelection campaign Ads.

Facebook calls Trump Campaign Ads ‘Organized Hate’. It takes down nearly 100 Ads run by Trump’s reelection campaign. The Ads in question prominently featured an inverted red triangle which the same symbol Nazi used to identify political prisoners. Trump is using the Symbol to attack his political opponents. Facebook says such rhetoric is not only in violation of it’s policies but qualifies for organized hate. Twitter and Facebook are finally taking measures to curb Trump’s most egregious posts on their platforms. Two companies have variously fact-checked, hidden, or added warning labels to posts and ads of Trump re-election campaign.

Who killed cricket in Pakistan?

Pakistan won the 1992 WC under the leadership of one of the greatest all-rounders in the world Imran Khan. Now, he is leading the country as Prime Minister of Pakistan. Every cricket lover in the country wants to see the glory in the gentleman game after Imran became PM for Pakistan. But his leadership can’t give any assurance to other nations to play the game in Pakistan. New Zealand abandoned the historic Pakistan tour just a few minutes after the first ball was to be bowled in the first ODI in Rawalpindi. Both teams have considered this series as preparation for the ICC T20 World Cup. Kiwis cites ‘Security threat’ to its players in Pakistan. There is a question that arises why NZ came and cancelled the visit. This is a massive blow to Pakistan cricket who wants to revive the game in the country.
