Twitter announces it will censor some tweets; activists worried - NY Daily News: Twitter service may be getting spotty in some countries.
The micro-blogging firm announced on the company blog Thursday that it plans to change its censorship policies to comply with different countries' regulations.
"As we continue to grow internationally, we will enter countries that have different ideas about the contours of freedom of expression," the post read. "Some differ so much from our ideas that we will not be able to exist there. Others are similar, but for historical or cultural reasons, restrict certain types of content, such as France or Germany, which ban pro-Nazi comment."
