eric is getting a considerable amount of criticism because they have agreed to
sensor certain tweets that countries do not agree with so now there are two
different camps when it comes to this twitter debate right now the reason why
twitter wants to demented a country's demands is because they want to make
sure that twitter is available to everyone in that country so if the
government of a certain country is like a we don't like these traits that make
us look bad
twenty-one try really hard knocks at sensor that person or delete that tweet
but if it comes to it they will have to do it right and the reason why they do
is because they want everyone in that country to have access to it
uh... now let me tell you what the criticisms are of course people are
saying this is censorship and if you look at the case that you jet social
networks alike face book and twitter worse only sensual immobilized in people
and letting them know about this revolution right and if you take that
away uh... if you give
our country the ability to control and manipulate twitter like that
how are you going to be able you know what your lies the social networks for a
social movement
well uh... look at so this is a tough situation because whatever industry it
were pretty look a bit like twitter
uh... that sure is enough
said that they become
age i institution
then
the governments have literature
and a concert to influence them more so what do you want to be in china
if you want
you know we discovered sister over a billion customers
religious at all you do what it means that they have played well
the listserv rules at all
and what do you know when you damned if you do damned if you don't
because if you're not allowed rather than again hope the revolution in
january zero one of the country red and that allows
executives that easily make a decision of like well it was the best case
scenario couldn't do it
but they have no development
about say they've made the wrong decision really because
this stuff
mishap and let you have to take your own emotions out of it which is difficult
for me to do because you know when you see how successful you ship was using
twitter and facebook
websites to be censored in any way shape or form but also you gotta keep in mind
the twitter is not a political action committee it's a business and they're
doing what's right for their business writer aunt uh... i'd know that they're
gonna get criticism for this but what's better to have an entire country annual
or still be available to the people of that country and as steve mentioned i
think this is a great point if they do on immobilize people for some sort of
social movement maybe they can find a way to do it in qad
mhm it's interesting possibility but it's a possibility of and also if i
understand it right
uh... bill still be able to send a message inouye
that people gave other countries to see so you are right about that sell when
those streets are censored their only censored in the country that is calling
for that censorship right
but other people in other countries can still see that tweak
so you can at least get news out of places like iran when there was a
uprising or on after the elections not
at a broader as we did right and we can still get news from egypt during their
uprising so it's a real mixed bag here and uh... by obviously we hate the
censorship whenever any country does it and you know look uh...
unfortunately company gives us large
you've got missouri catch up to it
when you have your company's as smaller companies this quarter for the
government keep track of all of them may be able to preferably
manipulate them shut them down et-cetera
but what we're it's gotten to this point
for better or for worse
