This report is a follow-up to one where I cover how Michael Ryan of the WHO stated in a press briefing how the WHO (which is of course in the pocket of Bill Gates) now believes it is time to start removing people from their homes.

Bans don’t seem to be lessening reach of Alex Jones, InfoWars

Some of the nation’s largest technology and social media companies have tried to stop Alex Jones and his conspiracy theories. But in a digital world, their attempts seem to have barely slowed him down.
After YouTube, Facebook and others this week removed content by Jones and his website, the InfoWars leader, talk show host and Austin resident fired back, accusing the companies of censorship and urging his audience to fight back against what he called an “unprecedented attack.”
Meanwhile, Jones’ website and other online platforms have remained popular destinations.
InfoWars continues to see more than 1 million page visits per day and has trended upward this month, according to Amazon’s Alexa website traffic report, which also said InfoWars averages more than 25 million page views per month.
Consumers still can access InfoWars through the same tech companies that just banned it. Google still offers the Infowars app for Android users, and Apple customers can download it through the App Store.
As of Friday, the show’s phone app remained near the top of the charts in both the Apple App and Google Play stores. Infowars Official, an app that lets viewers stream Jones’ shows and read news of the day, was ranked fourth among trending apps in the Google Play store Friday. In the news category on Apple’s App Store, Infowars earned the fourth slot under the top free apps, behind Twitter and News Break, a local and breaking news service, revealing a sudden boost of user downloads.
Apple told The Washington Post in a written statement: “We put great effort into curating the App Store to provide the very best experience for everyone. We strongly support all points of view being represented on the App Store, as long as the apps are respectful to users with differing opinions, and follow our clear guidelines, ensuring the App Store is a safe marketplace for all.”

“He hasn’t violated our rules”

Following a statement by Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, explaining that Alex Jones and Infowars have not violated the company’s terms of service, leftists users of the social media website whined and complained that Twitter refused to follow in the footsteps of Google, Facebook and others by banning Infowars content.
“We didn’t suspend Alex Jones or Infowars yesterday,” Dorsey wrote on Tuesday night. “We know that’s hard for many but the reason is simple: he hasn’t violated our rules.”
We didn’t suspend Alex Jones or Infowars yesterday. We know that’s hard for many but the reason is simple: he hasn’t violated our rules. We’ll enforce if he does. And we’ll continue to promote a healthy conversational environment by ensuring tweets aren’t artificially amplified.
Truth is we’ve been terrible at explaining our decisions in the past. We’re fixing that. We’re going to hold Jones to the same standard we hold to every account, not taking one-off actions to make us feel good in the short term, and adding fuel to new conspiracy theories.
If we succumb and simply react to outside pressure, rather than straightforward principles we enforce (and evolve) impartially regardless of political viewpoints, we become a service that’s constructed by our personal views that can swing in any direction. That’s not us.
Accounts like Jones' can often sensationalize issues and spread unsubstantiated rumors, so it’s critical journalists document, validate, and refute such information directly so people can form their own opinions. This is what serves the public conversation best.
While Dorsey explained that it would not be in Twitter’s best interest to censor free speech, it was abundantly clear that he was not defending or endorsing Alex Jones or Infowars.
Nevertheless, the misinformed cry-babys lined up to take shots at Dorsey over the statement:
You’re very terrible and everyone knows it. Your actions are to continually bend over in favor of nazis, racists, misogynists and misinformers plus bots. You’ve done it to prop up your stock price and made the world worse.
This poorly thought out, ill-advised statement is contradictory. Essentially: "We didn't suspend Alex Jones because he hasn't broken the rules we came up with ourselves. We have to be impartial. We can't just go making up rules!"
then change your rules. You are perpetuating and enabling great harm to the country and the world. Clean it up. And stop with your patronizing tweets to us. This is on YOU, @jack
You own the company. If the rules on the books are insufficient and don't achieve your company's goals of promoting a healthy conversational environment, you can change them.
Someday, Jack, you will understand the magnitude of your decision and you will, I guarantee you, feel shame.
Don't get mad. Get even. Stop using Twitter. It's hard to imagine worse people to go to bat for than Alex "Sandy Hook truther" Jones, or the Proud Boys who invaded Portland. But @Jack wants their business more than yours. #DeleteTwitter https://twitter.com/jack/status/1026984242893357056 …
Brace yourself. The ratio is coming.
Translation: “I am totally abdicating all responsibility here and relying on journalists to police my website because I am gutless.” -@jack
*sigh* what are the “rules” Jack?
Seems like a problem with the rules
don't put this on us
Have you considered adding a new rule against users who harass the parents of dead kindergartners so much that they have to go into hiding? https://twitter.com/jack/status/1026984242893357056 …
Jones' show accused families of dead children of being part of a government conspiracy, he threatened Mueller while mimicking a gun with his hand, and other similar gross examples of spreading hoaxes and violent rhetoric. Your rules SUCK if they don't prohibit that.
.@Jack
The conspiracy theories of Alex Jones about the Sandy Hook mass shooting of children have led to harassment of grieving parents by his lunatic acolytes.
If Alex Jones doesn't violate your rules, your rules aren't worth shit.
important for people to form their own opinions about whether the sandy hook parents are lying about their murdered children
OK, I'll start.
Despite the raving claims of Alex Jones, Sandy Hook parents did not fake the murders of their babies.
There.
We good?
Some users actually still value free speech, however:
This is the right approach. The best antidote to “bad” speech, however one wishes to define it, is more speech. https://twitter.com/jack/status/1026984249960755200 …
Twitter hasn’t always done the right thing, but this thread is spot on. Hope the other major platforms take note.
This is the best answer I have seen on this topic so far. Thank you Jack.
