執掌白宮的日子已經屈指可數，美國總統特朗普卻困獸猶鬥，始終拒絕認輸。近日發生的特朗普支持者“衝擊國會山”事件，更讓政權交接成為一場鬧劇。
這場鬧劇令自詡“民主燈塔”的美國顏麵盡失，而特朗普也為此付出了代價——他的推特賬號因涉嫌煽動暴力而被“封殺”。
報道稱，推特的決定令特朗普失去了他多年來用以和美國人民直接交流的強大工具。他利用推特宣布政策變化，挑戰對手，侮辱敵人，稱讚其盟友和他本人，並散布錯誤信息，煽動暴力，用大寫字母譴責他的憤怒目標。
的確，過去四年間，當特朗普權勢正盛時，他的個人推特是各國媒體和政府機構等關注的重點，以至於產生了“推特治國”的說法。那時恐怕沒多少人能預料到，這位“推特總司令”會落得如此下場。
“推特沒有言論自由。”特朗普在個人賬號被封之後用美國總統官方賬號說道，然而這些推文也迅速被刪除。
不僅推特一家，美國各大科技巨頭還對特朗普實施了“聯合絞殺”，臉書、穀歌、蘋果、優兔等都在極力降低特朗普的“存在感”。
科技巨頭們給出的理由看起來相當正義，例如推特解釋稱，領導人賬戶“並非完全淩駕於我們的規定之上”，不得利用推特煽動暴力。但路透社注意到，臉書和推特等公司以前可不敢這樣對待特朗普，反而對他很是“寬待”，即便特朗普所發帖文違反規定，也以其“關乎公共利益”為由加以保留。

曾在奧巴馬執政時期擔任白宮通訊聯絡辦公室主任的珍妮弗·帕爾米利也指出，社交媒體公司們決定對特朗普采取更多措施的那天，正好跟它們得知國會所有能監管它們的委員會都將被民主黨掌控是同一天。
這很難不令人多想，尤其是在特朗普目前還是美國合法總統的情況下，甚至有些外國領導人都看不下去了。
據美聯社報道，墨西哥總統洛佩斯·奧夫拉多爾批評了他所謂的對美國總統的審查製度，他說：“我不喜歡任何人被剝奪在推特或臉書網站上發布信息的權利。我不同意這種做法，我不接受。”
按照美媒的說法，奧夫拉多爾發出此番言論是因為他“對特朗普友好”，但這顯然不是事情的全貌——在墨西哥以外的很多國家，人們看到美國科技巨頭對總統的“封殺”時，也感到不寒而栗。
1月9日，當印度亞洲國際新聞社（ANI）在其官方推特上追蹤報道了特朗普的推特賬號被封的消息後，有印度學者便轉發呼籲：“我們必須建立我們自己的社交媒體平台。”
“私人公司手中的權力太大了。”這位學者說。

還有印度網友指出，通過運作，臉書和推特可能比當地政府的文件更能引導民意，這是值得擔憂的，因為這已經大大超出了美國政治的範疇。
“對於印度、以色列以及其他各國來說，保有一個主權範圍內的讓領導層和人民直接溝通的渠道都是一個重要的國家安全問題，”有網友說，“這個世界不能被美國公司掌控”。

無獨有偶，法國數字事務部部長塞德裏克·奧也表達了類似的擔憂。他在接受媒體采訪時質問：“推特怎麽可以單方麵決定封鎖一個有8000萬粉絲的賬號？”並呼籲對數字寡頭進行更進一步的監管，結束它們為所欲為的狀態。
“試想一下，如果哪天臉書或推特變得政治化，在法國支持或反對某些政黨的時候，它們就可以修改規則來禁止不同的觀點。”他說。

美國《紐約時報》2015年的一篇報道曾指出，截至2013年，全球十大互聯網公司中8家在美國，而它們的網上用戶中，81%都在美國之外。
從近些年的發展來看，推特等美國社交媒體平台在一些問題上其實早已“政治化”。據美國商業內幕網站1月9日報道，中國駐美大使館官方推特日前引述中國學者報告稱，有研究顯示，新疆婦女變得更有自信和獨立自主。但此條推文隨後被推特刪除。
而在2019年香港“修例風波”時，推特就曾以“違反推特價值觀”等理由關停了大批闡明真相的賬號，反而對造謠傳謠的大批賬號縱容有加，推特公司副總裁還會見了多名亂港分子，為亂局推波助瀾。
這次“封殺特朗普”，則給全世界的人們提了個醒：“數字帝國主義”仍未走遠。
===========================================================
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.

禁川普不禁惡名昭彰，推特股價崩跌10%
社群平台推特（Twitter）股價11日暴跌10%，《市場內幕》（MarketInsider）報導指出，原因是永久禁止美國總統川普（Donald Trump）使用其帳號。

報導指出，推特上有8千8百萬位用戶追蹤川普。推特上周五（8日）晚上宣布永久禁止川普賬號後，該公司的股票今早盤前交易中下跌多達10％。
投資者擔心禁止川普使用其帳號，將侵蝕推特這個平台的營利，並引起認為這項決定出自政治計算，刻意扼殺保守派聲音者的杯葛。
推特禁止川普使用其帳戶，也讓人檢視該平台是否用同樣的標準去對待惡名昭彰的獨裁者。《福斯新聞》（FoxNews）報導，伊朗最高領袖哈米尼（Ayatollah Ali Khamenei）、涉嫌反猶的美國穆斯林團體領袖拉法勘（LouisFarrakhan ）和中國的大外宣份子都還在推特活躍，委內瑞拉獨裁者馬杜洛（Nicolas Maduro）的推特也好端端的。
《金融時報》（Financial Times）也刊登文章質疑〈推特vs.川普：科技巨擘是否做過頭了？〉。

- 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.
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.
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.
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.

總統被“禁言” 美式“言論自由”著實讓人大開眼界
“人還在，號沒了”，這對因“煽動暴力”而遭美國多個社交媒體封號禁言的美國領導人來說，無疑是件難堪的事。而更難堪的是，在一向標榜“言論自由”的美國，一國總統失去了在社交平台自由發言的權利，不啻是對美式“言論自由”的莫大諷刺。
有人說，美國領導人在社交媒體上發表煽動暴力的言論，違反美國法律與平台管理規則，相關平台將其封號是依法辦事。這話沒錯，任何在社交媒體上煽動暴力的行為都應被禁止。但問題是：過去四年，美國領導人在社交平台上說的出格話太多了，既有散播假新聞的，也有煽動仇恨暴力的，為什麽美國社交媒體一直遲遲未采取行動？
截至2020年5月，美國領導人上任以來在社交媒體上共發表了1.8萬多個“虛假或誤導性信息”，其中超過3300個是在推特上發布的。去年5月非裔男子弗洛伊德被白人警察跪殺後，美國多地爆發遊行示威和騷亂。當時美國領導人在推特上發文揚言“隻要（有人）搶劫就開槍”。雖然推特將該文打上“美化暴力”的標記，但並未將其刪除。美國領導人依舊可以在社交媒體上發文煽動暴力。
特別是在去年大選結果出來後，他多次在推特上呼籲支持者以“行動”抗爭，呼籲他們到華盛頓去遊行，“那裏將會瘋狂”。對此，美國社交媒體無動於衷，任由其聲嘶力竭地煽動。直到國會山遭暴力衝擊事件發生後，這些社交媒體好像才“幡然醒悟”采取措施。
梳理這一係列事件發生的時機，難道不值得玩味嗎？表麵上看，此時封禁美國領導人賬號，是社交媒體製止傳播暴力的合理正當行為，但實際上這裏麵夾雜了不少政治私心。
人們看到，眼下離美國領導人卸任不到十天，但以國會山衝擊事件為導火索，對他及其支持者的政治清算已經展開。從美國警方火速逮捕至少82名衝擊國會大廈的抗議者，到美國眾議院議長佩洛西要求軍方確保總統不能動用核武器，再到美國國會11日發起對總統的二次彈劾，美國領導人正麵臨“牆倒眾人推”的處境。
在這樣的政治氛圍下，美國各大社交媒體對其禁言消聲，既是為了表明政治正確，也有將自身與此次暴力事件割席、逃脫責任的考慮。由此可見，封還是不封，說到底都是一場政治投機而已。正如西班牙《世界報》評論所說，美國社交網絡本該是促進自由交流的工具，卻最終成為傳播虛假信息和實施政治操縱的工具。
這也讓人們進一步看清，所謂美式“言論自由”隻看立場，不過是美國得勢者對內打壓異己、對外攻擊對手的政治工具罷了。
雪崩時沒有一片雪花是無辜的。當示威者在暴力言論鼓噪下衝進美國國會山，當虛假信息在美國社交媒體大肆傳播，所謂的美式“言論自由”，也撕下了最後一片遮羞布。

川普反抗“數位大屠殺”：所有推文在Gab霸氣回歸
美國總統川普及社群媒體Parler遭主流企業封殺不僅引發國際反彈，更激起一波"數位移民潮"，不少川普支持者"逃亡"至Gab等其他社交平台。

Gab創辨人暨執行長托爾巴（Andrew Torba）為反製他所稱的"數位大屠殺"，不但備份了川普在推特的所有推文，並已將這些推文完整恢複到川普在Gab上的帳號。
美國保守派網站《權威者門戶》（Gateway Pundit）在報導中驚呼："哇！ Gab執行長反製科技暴君，把川普總統在推特上的所有推文，恢複到川普在Gab上的帳號了。"
報導中說，更令人印象深刻的是，他是在流量上升700%並受到左派攻擊的情況下做到的。Gab目前正在對伺服器進行升級，以處理大量湧入的流量，但我們被告知應該很快就會穩定下來。
托爾巴日前公布，在推特封鎖川普之後，Gab每小時平均新增1萬個帳號，整體流量增長約40%，更單日有逾50萬個新帳號登記。
托爾巴稱，川普支持者正"被共產主義者在網路步步進逼"，形容保守派、基督徒和"對共產主義利益集團統治有異議的人"正遭受"數位大屠殺"他預言日後會出現"大饑荒滅絕"（Holodomor）。麵對網站流量不斷增長，他重申正準備更多伺服器來因應。
